[gaim-migrate @ 8953] "Well sf seems to be in read only mode. This patch makes the progress bar in the room list dialog pulse slower. Previously it pulsed every time a new room was received, and had a pulse step of 10 until 100 rooms were downloaded, and then switched to a pulse step of 100. Now it pulses every time a room is received but no more than once every 100ms. And the pulse step stays constant at 10. This should fix the "my connection is so far the progress bar is sucking up all my cpu" problem some lucky individuals have had. Since my connection isn't that fast, I'm not completely sure how well it works, but it seems good to me. Simguy tells me it's better. If you want to test you'll need to download the list on undernet on irc, or something like that. Other protocols tend to download it too fast to really see the progress bar. --Tim Ringenbach" 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.
