Ciao Marco,
re-incollo qui sotto una mail che Luca aveva spedito qui in
mailning list a Marzo. Riporta una guida introduttiva per tutti quelli
che vogliono cominciare a tradurre.

Per i nuovi traduttori incollo la guida introduttiva di Sarah:
Hello members of the Italian translation community,

I'm one of the maintainers of the Fedora Translation Project. I have 
received a number of queries regarding how to contribute Italian 
translation to the Fedora project. I hope this email will help to 
clarify some issues.

The current Italian translation status can be viewed on:
http://carolina.mff.cuni.cz/~trmac/fedora-i18n.html

As you may notice, currently there are a number of packages not 100% 
translated. This would be an excellent starting point to contribute.

To become a translator, you need a cvs account (I believe many of you 
have already signed up one). The place to sign up an account is at: 
http://rhlinux.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-signup/

Once you account has been approved, you will be able to check out cvs 
module and work on the translation:

export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:ext:[e-mail]:/usr/local/CVS
cvs co -z9 translate/

You would be able to find all files under your translate/ directory. The
files are in po format. You can use any text editor to edit them but I 
recommend kbabel because this tool is very easy to use. You can also try
poEdit and gTranslator.

Once files are translated you can commit them back to cvs:

cvs commit -m "some log message" filename

For more information please refer to one of my earlier emails sent to 
fedora-trans-list:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2003-December/msg00001....

Please feel free to ask any questions. I will do my best to answer them.

Happy translating!

Regards,

Sarah
