Hi,

We just deployed a new version of mentors.debian.net with internationalization
included. We currently have three languages available: English (the default),
French and Portuguese (Brazil).

Anyone can contribute translations using the Weblate project we've setup at:

https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/debexpo

We will publish translation that are a least 95% complete and unpublish it if it
dips below 75%.

mentors.debian.net will detect your browser settings and will serve the
appropriate version if the translation is available.

You can force a specific language one of the two way:

- In your account profile, by setting your preferred language
- In the language quick switcher, available on all pages at the top right
(higher priority)

I would like to thanks Carlos Henrique Lima Melara and Thiago Pezzo for their
work on the Portuguese (Brazil) translation.

Please note that I wrote the French translation myself as a way to ensure that
most of mentors can be translated. And although I'm a native speaker, I am by no
means good at my own language... All of that to say that fixes and proofreading
would be much appreciated.

I translated Persian to 95%. When will it reach to the production?

Hi Danail,
Thanks a lot for your contribution!

I'm currently working on a small script to automatically clean up
weblate commits (mostly squashing consecutive commits from the same
author) and merge translation updates to the main repository.

We have an issue on the project to track that [1]. I hope to have it
ready before the end of next week and be able to push both Persian and
Chinese to https://mentors.debian.net.

Best,

Hi all,
I'm please to announce that we've merged and deployed new complete
translations for https://mentors.debian.net. The site is now available
in:

- Chinese (Simplified)
- Dutch
- English
- French
- German
- Italian
- Japanese
- Persian
- Portuguese

- Portuguese (Brazil)
- Romanian
- Spanish
- Swedish

A huge thanks to all translators who contributed to those translations.
If you wish to help translating new languages, it can be done using
weblate at:

https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/debexpo

Since we've partially automated importation of translations, updates
from weblate should be merged more frequently from now on.

Best,
