Tranlators for AOS4 needed!
« on: February 05, 2003, 06:38:55 PM »
From the AOS4 ML (go here to read the original message and get a clickable e-mail adress to Mr. Rey if you're interested) :
 
Translators are needed for OS4 to take care of some languages where the
ATO can't help at the moment.
 Click the "Read More..." link below for more information.

These are the languages needing fresh new
people and the number of translators currently working on them:

- Bosnian (1)
- Croatian (0)
- German (0)
- Hungarian (0)
- Norwegian (1)
- Persian (0)
- Portuguese (1)
- Swedish (0)


Requirements:

- AmigaOS 3.9 with BB#2 installed
- PGP 2.6.3 key or compatible
- NDA on file with Amiga, Inc.

Translators can also double as betatesters if they so desire. Joining
the ATO is also optional, but we really could do with more members.
If you feel like this is the job for you, please drop me a mail.

Distribution of this post is unlimited.

As for the "requirements" (apart from the obvious OS3.9),
the PGP key in question is reportedly available from Aminet.
The NDA is downloadable from AmigaInc:s homepage - you
just sign and fax it to them.

Not sure if you have to be a member of Yahoo to be able to read the original message. The link works for me anyway.

Hopefully, some other Swede(s) might be able to help out.

 
I would like to, actually, I think I would be able to do a
decent translation. Unfortunately 1) I'm currently doing my
master theisis in astrophysics and 2) My Amiga isn't
connected to the net (see my thread "Amiga/Linux help
wanted")... :-/
 
To be honest, I never use the swedish translations anyway.
I always use AOS3.9 (as well as Windows and Linux) in
native english mode only. I'm sure the translations are very
good - I'm just so used doing everything in english that it
would be very unnerving to see some swedish translation
of "Please insert disk ### in df0:" :-)
 
The only crucial "local" thing for me is a swedish keyboard
layout.
