Subject: [Mailman-i18n] Translating listname-request and other functions
Message-ID: <8186d869-34aa-920f-878f-e39753ccd8be@atservice.co.za>

Hi Everyone,

Is there a way to translate email addresses used for commands like
listname-request
listname-bounces

Warm Regards
Barco

No. Mailman isn't set up to internationalize those addresses. There
would be several issues in trying to do so. Not only would you have to
find everywhere where those strings appear and replace the string with
an i18n lookup, you'd also have to ensure that the translation of
'bounces', 'request' etc. didn't contain any characters that aren't
allowed in email addresses. Even if internationalized email addresses
per RFC 6531 were used, the extensions (SMTPUTF8) to support this aren't
universally implemented which can result in delivery issues.

Hi, I like to contribute to the Swedish translation of GNU Mailman. Is 
there any newer translation, GNU Mailman 2.1 was last edited in 2002?

The latest templates are at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/files/head:/templates/sv/>
and the message catalog is at
<http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/view/head:/messages/sv/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po>.

Other than a few template updates, little if anything has changed from
the initial contribution.

We welcome your help. If you haven't already seen it,
<https://wiki.list.org/DEV/i18nhowto> gives information about submitting
translations. There is other information at and linked from
<https://wiki.list.org/DEV/Internationalization>.

If you have any questions, please ask on this list.

Hi, some strings uses &aring; &auml; &ouml; for ? ? ?.

e.g.

Non-digest&nbsp;options ->

Inst&auml;llningar&nbsp;f&ouml;r&nbsp;normalversion


Is it still necessary?

Yes. It is problematic in the message catalog because it isn't always
clear whether a string is used in a plain text context only, an html
context only or both, but strings which are used in an html context only
and html templates, as long as they are predominantly ascii should have
non-ascii represented as html entities.

This is to avoid the garbling that can occur in installations where the
web server overrides the character encoding of a page.
