Subject: [Mailman-i18n] I need Farsi language
Message-ID: <000f01ce2829$44c1e110$0301a8c0@home3c459be30f>

Hi everybody
I am happy to join your mailing list.
I recently installed a mailing list on my website. The Python version on my website is 2.1.1.5. I need to choose Farsi (Persian) 
language as the default language of the mailing list, but this option is not available among the currently available languages. I 
saw Persian in the list of your available languages table, but I wonder how I can use this language for my website. I appreciate 
your help. I am not very well acquainted with Python mailing list system.

Thank you

There is no Farsi i18n available for Mailman. According to
<http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Languages>, there is a Farsi
translation being worked on by Mahyar Moghimi
<mahyar.moqimi at gmail.com>, but this has not yet been submitted.

You should contact Mahyar Moghimi and encourage the submission of this
translation, Alternatively, If you want to work on your own
translation, see
<http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Internationalization> and the other
pages it links to for information on how to start. If you have
specific questions, ask here and we will try to help you.

Subject: [Mailman-i18n] Question about translation of PO file
Message-ID: <001001ce2a18$6ba302f0$0301a8c0@home3c459be30f>

Hi there
I know I should ask this question from Mahyar Moghimi, and I have already asked him, but since he is on new year's holidays and 
can't reply soon , I ask it here. I tried to translate a part of
mailman.po

Into Farsi language.  I attached the translated part here as a text file. I only translated short and important phrases now, not 
long ones. Now I have 2 questions:
1- Am I writing the translations in the right positions?
2- How can I test to see if the translations are working rightly?

I have already read the How-to-translate guide, but I got confused because there were lots of various guides and some of them where 
not clear enough.

Best Regards

First, in the future please avoid moderation delays and possible
rejected posts by posting from a subscribed address, i.e.,
javad at irannopendar.com or javad at iranravi.com.

No, you are not doing this correctly. The msgid string is the key by
which the English language message is looked up. You do not change
this. You place your translation of the message in the corresponding
msgstr string.


>2- How can I test to see if the translations are working rightly?


This is covered at <http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/i18nhowto>.

Please ask specific, detailed questions about the points that confuse
you, and we'll try to help.
