Hi Jonathan,

a month ago I've translated your plugin to german.
If you're interested in to get it for distribution or else let me
know.

Best regards,
Bjoern

Thanks!

I think that it would be a fantastic idea to distribute it! If you
send me the language files, I'll integrate them into the next
maintenance release.

Thanks so much for your help!

Hi Jonathan,

havn't used a language file cause your plugin don't have one, since
now, or?
I just edit all files with german words instead of english ones.

Don't know how difficult it is to build multilanguage support for your
plugin, I would need a .po file from you and can translate your plugin
from english to german, dutch, french, and with help from a friend to
polish and spain. I am just i the finishing process for translating gd-
star-rating another plugin for wordpress which has .po files.

Let me know what you think.

Best regards,
Bjoern

I'm putting the finishing touches on a version of the plugin that can
be translated with .po files. It's currently in the testing/debugging
phase.

I'll try to get you the .po/.pot files that you need to translate the
plugin tonight (I live in UTC-7) or tomorrow.

That sounds amazing! Thanks so much for your support.

Right now, the only other translation-related issue is licensing. In
order for your .po and .mo files to be bundled with the plugin, they
have to be put into the repository for this plugin. The WordPress
team requires that all files that are put into that repository be put
under a GPL-compatible license.

Would you be comfortable with licensing your translations under a
GPL-compatible license? The file would still retain your copyright
notice with your name.

Thanks so much!

No problem, I will wait.

It's no issue or problem for me to put my translated .po amd .mo files
under a GPL-compatible license.
Don't want to get famous with that ;o)

I've added the .pot file as an attachment. It works with 1.0.6 beta
1. This new version of the plugin can be downloaded from:

Thanks so much for volunteering to help out with this!

Hi Jonathan,

only want to let you know that I'm in the translation process. German
is already finished.
Think you will get them this weekend.

Hi Jonathan,

how do I have to name the language files (.po and .mo) that they get
active?
Some Plugins uses file naming like this : "pluginname" - de_DE.po
(for german).

Nice sunday,
Bjoern

Thanks for asking!

It turns out that the WordPress documentation on that aspect of
localization isn't complete. I did some research and determined that
the plugin's po and mo files should be named in the following format:

feed-stats-plugin-{ISO 639 language code}_{ISO 3166-1 alpha-2
country code}.{file extension}

Thanks so much for volunteering to translate the plugin!
