[gaim-migrate @ 9105] " For people and systems which have libzephyr installed (e.g Debian), this will allow the zephyr plugin to optionally be linked against it, instead of building and linking in the libzephyr that comes with gaim. Why? 1) A gaim binary package can be compiled against a locally installed libzephyr.a, and use either unkerberized or kerberized zephyr depending on which version of the zephyr shared libraries is installed. 2) It reduces the build speed and size of the zephyr plugin (on Debian x86, from 6.5 MB to ~ 300 kb) Also, I added a zephyr icon (a blue Z), that's similar to the icons used by Windows and MacOS zephyr clients at MIT." --Arun A Tharuvai someone will have to tell me how to fix the win32 makefiles, and i'm not sure he patched enough to get his icon to be actually used. 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.
