translation

As we migrate to gettext for Chamilo LMS v10, we are also looking for a platform to host our translation system (considering our current translation system does not support gettext). We will migrate most existing translations, but we were looking for the right platform to manage the translations as a community.

Translating a web application is not an easy task (although it might seem so).

In just three weeks since the announcement of the split between Dokeos and Chamilo, Chamilo has already received support from many organizations and independents that seem to have thought alike for a long time.

This one is tricky... (and not so practical just yet) So let's say you have a 120 pages document, written using MS-Word, and which is understood pretty well by OpenOffice.org Writer (v2). Now let's say your document is a technical document and, as such, it is half-full of screenshots taken from a software interface (in this case Dokeos) directly into the language of the document. See what I mean? Now, let's say this document is in French and you want to translate it to English (or Spanish, the problem is exactly the same).
