[gaim-migrate @ 9774] " This patch renames the existing received-*-msg signals to receiving-*msg to fit the naming of other signals where a pointer to the message is passed (writing, sending, displaying) It adds new received-*-msg signals which are emitted after the receiving signals, in line with the other conversation signals (wrote, sent, displayed) This is necessary to allow plugins which depend on the final received message to work alongside plugins which may modify the message. One known example of this is festival-gaim alongside gaim-encryption - festival-gaim would try to "speak" the encrypted text: http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=943216&group_id=89763&atid=591320 I've tested this with gaim-encryption and festival-gaim (locally modified so gaim-encryption uses the receiving signal and festival uses the received signal) All in-tree users of received-*-msg are updated to use receiving-*-msg if they do modify the message, the conversation-signals documentation is updated, the signals-test.c & signal-test.tcl plugins are also updated." --Stu Tomlinson committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>

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 <email@something.com>
# Copyright (C) 2003, Your Name <email@whatever.com>
#
# This file is distributed under the same license as the Gaim package.
