[gaim-migrate @ 15375] Here's my "I'm staying up all night anyway so I might as well take a stab at the connection error buttons" work on the connection error buttons. I left Mark's comment in since I don't think this is finished. I also left a couple warnings in place because I'm too tired to try to follow failure characteristics and recovery mechanisms for the stuff I'm doing. It works for me. I saturated the prpl icons mostly because it made the error overlay stand out better, but once I saw it I think it works well, and also fits well with our use of saturation in other places to indicate offline. I'm currently using the default status image blocked.png, if that's what we end up wanting to keep we should put a copy of it somewhere else as pulling it from status/default is silly. I had originally tried to get the blocked circle to be larger than the prpl icon, with the prpl icon centered, but couldn't come up with a good way to do that given the gdk functions I had at hand. I'll probably give it a shot again at some other point unless we decide we don't want it or someone else does it before me. I'm done rambling now, I'm tired. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

Translation README

Updated: 04-October-2003
------------------

Translated .po files may be submitted in whatever native encoding is
most convenient (and hopefully canonical).  Please ensure that the
Content-type: line reflects the proper character set.



Updated: 19-April-2003
------------------

To supply a new translation, you first need a copy of gaim.pot.
This can be built by typing:

./update.pl --pot

from the gaim/po/ directory.

To update an exsting translation, type:

./update.pl LANG

where LANG is the language code to update, such as fr or ja. This will build
a new gaim.pot and update the translation with the changes. You may then
begin editing the updated file.

New or updated translations should be sent to the gaim-devel listserv
(see http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gaim-devel)

Please check your translations carefully. Make sure you have the same
number of newlines and %s or other formatting codes in the translation as
you have in the original.



Updated: 05-August-2003
------------------

Before submitting updated or new translations, please run the following 
command to ensure the file does not contain errors:
> msgfmt -c --statistics xx.po

The comments at the top of each .po file should appear as follows:
# Gaim Xxxxx translation
# Copyright (C) 2002, Another Name <[e-mail]>
# Copyright (C) 2003, Your Name <[e-mail]>
#
# This file is distributed under the same license as the Gaim package.
