3.2. Obtaining and Translating Projects

Now that you have prepared a directory structure, you can download a file to translate. You may need to communicate with other translators in your language team to avoid conflict. If you are not sure, please contact your language coordinator.
  1. Visit your language page such as http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/ja/, and select a target release. The interface will redirect you to a page for that release, such as http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/ja/collection/fedora/fedora-12/.
  2. Scroll down the page to find the table of all projects available for that release. Use the arrow download icon labeled Download ja.po or similar next to each project to download the po file to the directory you created in the previous section.
  3. 因​为​要​提​交​的​文​件​名​需​要​遵​循​lang.po的​命​名​惯​例​,所​以​要​改​变​下​载​的​文​件​名​.下​面​的​例​子​使​用​日​文​区​域​的​po文​件​: 
    ls ~/myproject/comps/
comps.HEAD.ja.po
mv ~/myproject/comps/comps.HEAD.ja.po ja.po
ls ~/myproject/comps/
ja.po
  4. 现​在​文​件​已​经​准​备​好​来​翻​译​了​.使​用​po文​件​编​辑​器​,如​Lokalize 或​者​gtranslator,翻​译​po文​件​到​你​的​语​言​.
  5. 在​你​提​交​前​,检​查​文​件​的​完​整​性​. 
    msgfmt -cvo /dev/null ja.po
