[patch] GeoServer german translation (DE)

Christian Müller offered to do the review.

Astrid, I did a quick check of the file encodings

./core/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: UTF-8 Unicode English text
./demo/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: UTF-8 Unicode English text
./gwc/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: ASCII text
./security/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: UTF-8 Unicode English text, with very long lines
./wcs/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: ISO-8859 text
./wfs/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: ISO-8859 text
./wms/GeoServerApplication_de.properties: ASCII text

Two files are us-ascii, two files are iso-8859.

If I look at your files on a linux box I see lines like

WCSLayerConfig.deleteSelected=Gew�hlte l�schen

Do you have the possibility to save all your files encoded in UTF-8 and upload a new zip file, otherwise we will get problems on different platforms.

Christian, I saved the files as UTF-8. In my editor the charaters are ok.

Christian,

I changed the encoding to UTF-8.

Astrid, Christian,

I started reviewing the property files too and created a patch file for easy sharing based on trunk. I attach a partly changed file for the core module. Do you have a chance to work with a patch file and provide new one for the unfinished stuff?

Applying the patch failed

-----------------

Can you create a geoserver_translation_de_3.zip including your changes.

At the moment I have problems with admin GUI, German special characters are not displayed correctly.

Btw, who of us will take care of the German translation in the future ?

Added a patch for the modules listed below:

• core
• demo
• wms

Hopefully the patch can be applied this time. Checked the patch as well as the frontend in my 2.1-beta instance on win and mac os. All special german chars were displayed fine.

Could someone review the TODO's within! Thanks!

The patch works !

I committed the three files on trunk.

About the TODOs. I am not sure if we should translate the JAI settings since there is no official documentation about JAI itself.

There are another 4 files left, are you continuing to work on them.

Yes, I try to finish the others within the next days and attach these to the issue as well.

A doc about documentation : GEOS-4323

added web-security german translation properties file. Please REVIEW, especially the Catalog mode descriptions.

Committed the security translations to trunk, now we can work with patches.
I have seen there are still English Strings in the file ?

gs-4294-web-security_de.patch commited to trunk

GeoWebCache German translation property file

gs-web-gwc_de.patch commited to trunk

Applying
patch -p0 < ~/Downloads/gs-web_de.patch

on trunk gives me

patching file src/web/gwc/src/main/resources/GeoServerApplication_de.properties
Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected! Assume -R? [n]

I aborted the patch. Frank, can you do a fresh check out into a new directory and try to apply the patch ?.

Christian,

I checked the patch file and - sorry for that - it was a patch that has been already applied to trunk. I deleted the attachment to avoid confusion ..

Added patchfile #5 to apply on trunk with some fixed UTF8 issues and a few translations as well

Applying

mcr@l00001:~/gs-trunk> patch -p0 < ~/Downloads/GEOS-4294_5.patch

results in

patching file src/web/wfs/src/main/resources/GeoServerApplication_de.properties

Frank, do you test your patches by applying them to a fresh checkout ?

totally new checkout from trunk and applied the patch GEOS-4294_5.patch successfully:

patch -p0 < ./../GEOS-4294_5.patch
patching file src/web/wfs/src/main/resources/GeoServerApplication_de.properties

Astrid,
Christian,

I just look at the livd DVD install scripts and the used geoserver version is 2.1.0. Right now the translations were only committed on trunk. So I guess we should port these back to 2.1.x if we do not upgrade to 2.2.0 for the live dvd. Would you agree? Is it also a need to have translations for 2.0.x?

Frank

Applied the patch successfully.

No translations for 2.0.x, this version is out of maintenance.

For 2.1.x, you can do as you like.

Frank, your request for commit access was on the wrong list. You have to mail to the geoserver-devel list, not to the geotools-devel list.

I am not a PSC member of geotools but I would support this, stop playing ping-pong with patch files.

Ahhhhhhhh, to much work on too many fronts. I am a PSC member of geotools but not of geoserver. geoserver code is where you need to commit access.

Don't worry, Andrea Aime already gave me commit access for geoserver

Nice, so I can stop watching this issue and leave the job to you and Astrid ?

Yes! Thanks for committing our patches!

Astrid,
like Christian mentioned in his comment (http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-4294?focusedCommentId=270554&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-270554) the 2.0.x branch isn't maintained anymore and on the LiveDVD is installed a 2.1.x Version.

I would suggest to update only the 2.1.x branch, would you agree on that?

created a crowdin.net project for easier collaboration on that for non developers (who don't have commit access) : http://j.mp/qfAfzg
Initially I uploaded the current property files from 2.1.x branch and afterwards the already translated files too.
Please review and contribute the outstanding properties, if completed, we can export the properties and commit to 2.1.x branch.

hey that crowdin.net thing looks great. I just joined, waiting for moderator approval.
Do you think we should propose that tool as the translation tool for geoserver?

added 100% completed translation for German on 2.1.x, Ready for review in a running system.

Mass transition all resolved issue that did not see any further comment in the last month to closed status
