What do you mean? For clarity I'll state the things I understood so far :) translate FAQ.sgml and GNOME-tutorial.sgml, don't worry about the html it= =20 is generated from the sgml's. This would take care of the FAQ and the tutorial with the Java examples that can be accessed from the website. Things I don't know so far: how to translate the website itself? start from the html or are there als= o sgml documents from which the website itself is generated?

Do you know about cvs? If so, please checkout the java-gnome-web module - this contains the html. It is html, but not the html that you see when you go to the website.

I have translated the web into Spanish and I am the web desinger. I also update the information about roadmap, news, screenshots,... but I think this work should be done by other person because I don't know about details of gnome bindings release, new schedule, stable vs development releases. Well. I create the html from xml files. Each xml file contains one section of the website translated into various languages. Throught an ant script and XSLT I transform these xml files into html files. Nicolas, I am going to send you the xml source files. Send me the translated files and I will update the website. Maybe this files should be in the cvs repository. Now, In the cvs repository is the old version of the web, could somebody delete the java-gnome-web and java-gnome-site directories in the cvs repository?? |

Well, you can remove the files. CVS doesn't let you remove directories, which can be annoying sometimes. It would be a good if we could get the latest version of the website into cvs. -- .''`.

Hi, Sorry for not responding to the website for a long time - we have been very busy preparing the code for the gnome bindings release. It is clear that we need to keep the website more updated. Your work on the website has been absolutely fantastic - it looks really great and professional. I was hoping that perhaps you would consider staying on as webmaster. Since you might not follow java-gnome development as closely as us, I will send you detailed information about what updates need to be made each time. In addition to updating the site, could you possibly coordinate the translations too? we have quite a few people writing translations at the moment. One suggestion was to have a "team" page on the website which gives details of everyone in the java-gnome team. This could also be used to keep track of the status of the translations. Please do edit my changes to make them sound better - english never was one of my strongest abilities. Current updates: Front page - add a new paragraph Java-Gnome is committed to providing a reliable API for GNOME to be used in real applications. As such, we are part of the official <a href="http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings">Gnome Bindings Release</a>. This commits us to high quality releases and a release schedule closely following the main gnome release schedule. News: It might be best to replace this page with a link to cvsweb. Then it wouldn't require as much work to keep updated. CVSweb is down at the moment, so I can't give a url. The file needed is java-gnome/common/NEWS Roadmap - please change to: We will follow the <a href="http://www.gnome.org/start/2.5/bindings">Gnome bindings release schedule</a>. This includes making stable releases which change API every 6 months followed by a number of bug fix releases. When gnome start work on their next version, we will also start work modifying java-gnome for it. During this developmental period, we will make developmental releases of our latest code roughly every two weeks. Version numbers will always follow GNOME/GTK version numbers - i.e. a.b.c where b being odd indicates a developmental release and even indicating a stable release. Throughout all releases, we ... + last paragraph from current roadmap Supporting New Libraries As we get time, we also hope to provide support for new libraries. These will be released when ready and will not follow the schedule until they become reasonably complete and stable. Current plans for new additions include: gnome-panel-applet gtkhtml libvte Work has already started on some of these, but they are not yet of good enough quality to enter the gnome bindings release. Download: Stable Releases The current stable release series is 0.8.x. This provides support for gtk 2.0 / gnome 2.2. The current release includes tarballs for each individual module, plus an all-in-one java-gnome tarball. Most developers recommend using this tarball. Sources are available from <link>sourceforge</link> Precompiled Debian packages are available in the main distribution. <code>apt-get install libjava-gnome-doc libgtk0-java libgnome0-java libglade0-java</code> RPMs -- is anyone creating these? If anybody creates precompiled binary packages for other platforms, please send us a link. Developmental Releases Current developmental releases are available in the gnome bindings release at ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/bindings/Java/. The all-in-one tarball is available from link:sourceforge. The very latest code is available from <link>cvs Support (new section in download) We are more than pleased to help new developers get started with java-gnome. Please send your queries to jav...@li.... Applications: please replace the top two paragraphs with: The following is a taste of some of the applications written with Java-Gnome. If you would have written an application in Java-Gnome, please send a link to your website (with screenshots) and we'll add it to the list. Related links: Please add the gnome bindings release. -- .''`. Mark Howard : :' : `. `' http://www.tildemh.com `- mh...@de... | mh...@ti... | mh...@ca... |
