Dear List,

I am making the localization for Brazilian Portuguese.
I hope, that in a few weeks (2-3) I have the complete translations of PO,
for PT_BR, finished.
When I finished I will also open a website for evergreen in Brazil.
This website, will be hosted where I work. (State University of Maringa,
Brazil) www.uem.br
I will also host Pootle in the website  to help contributions in
translations.

>> Evergreen 1.4.0.0, release candidate 2, was made available for  download
>> from http://evergreen-ils.org/downloads.php today. This  release marks
>> the culmination of a significant effort to enable  translation in every
>> public and staff interface in Evergreen - and  at this point, the Evergreen
>> development team plans to minimize any  further changes to translatable
>> strings before the 1.4.0.0 final  release.
>>
>> We would like to invite new translations. Evergreen currently  includes
>> the following translations:
>>
>>  * Armenian - hy-AM
>>  * French (Canadian) - fr-CA
>>
>> However, as new interfaces such as the MARC importer/exporter have  been
>> developed and existing interfaces have been enhanced, these  translations
>> are in need of an update.
>>
>> Evergreen maintains all translatable strings in GNU gettext (POT/PO)
>>  format. If you would like to contribute a new translation:
>>  1. Download and extract the files from Evergreen 1.4.0.0 RC2
>> (http://evergreen-ils.org/downloads.php)
>>  2. Create a new set of PO files based on the POT files in the
>>  build/i18n/en-US/ directory
>>  3. Use a gettext-aware editor like POEdit (http://www.poedit.net/  for
>> Windows or Linux) to translate the files
>>  4. Send the translated files to the Evergreen Development mailing  list (
>> http://evergreen-ils.org/listserv.php) with a Developer's  Certificate of
>> Origin (DCO -
>> http://open-ils.org/documentation/contributing.html#DCO) in the body  of
>> your email.
>>
>> If you just want to translate the public interface (catalogue), you  only
>> need to translate the files "opac.dtd.pot" and "db.seed.pot".
>>
>> If you have any questions about the translation process, or notice
>>  problems, please send a message to the Evergreen Development mailing  list
>> and we'll do our best to answer your question or correct our  mistakes.
>>
>> Thank you, in advance, for helping Evergreen enter a multilingual world!
