Transifex "Pyro" v0.7 released!
Dimitris Glezos
release marks a big milestone for Transifex: support for complex workflows
with per-project translators, and support for editing PO files straight from
the browser.
Thanks to all those who made this possible, but most importantly, the
communities which use Transifex internally and together we've made this
release possible: Fedora, Moblin, XFCE, OpenInkpot and spreadlovenow.
A full list of the features with details and screenshots, and the bugfixes
introduced can be found in the Pyro release notes:
http://docs.transifex.org/releases/0.7.html
Here’s a list of the major features shipped:
- Lotte: The Lightweight Online Translation Editor: We’ve talked about Lotte
in the past. This release showcases the first alpha version of Lotte. Its
main features are still under heavy development, but following the ‘Release
early, Release often’ principle, we’ve unleashed this lady out in the wild
to get some feedback and improve.
- Fine-grained permissions allow maintainers to control who has access to his
repository. And that’s not just it. Translators can ‘Request access’ to a
project too, making it easier for volunteers to show their interest in
translating particular projects.
- Submissions to a mailbox: Are you a developer with code behind a firewall,
or shipping an tarball release? Fear not any more. Transifex can send the
submitted translations straight to your inbox.
And more:
- User Profiles: Becoming more social! Getting jiggy with it.
- Publican-like I18n Support: For our friends in the Fedora Documentation
Project.
- Simplified branching support: Following the KISS principle.
- A fresh, pre-configured appliance available in an number of formats (ISO,
VMWare, Amazon EC2) ready to run with the click of a button.
- And many, many other improvements in more than 300 changesets and 273 files
changed.
