Hello, it has been quite a while since the last update of the
transvision glossary. I'm happy to share the new version with you.

http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org

The transvision glossary is a web tool that permits you to search in the
en-US or other language for words/sentences/entities and give you the
en-US/locale correspondance. It can be usefull to know how your team has
translated some words or to search for mistakes.

You can also find somme old information on the babelzilla blog posts :
http://blog.babelzilla.org/2010/02/07/transvision-is-good-for-me/ and
http://blog.babelzilla.org/2010/03/07/transvision-progress/


***************************

There is also a web-service witch return a json file instead of an html
page :

http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org/glossaire_webservice.php

To use it, you have to pass the argument directly on the url like it is
done on the regular glossary (look at the url after a search) :

http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org/index.php?recherche=report&locale=fr&repo=beta

Will become in the web-service :

http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org/glossaire_webservice.php?recherche=report&locale=fr&repo=beta


********************************************

New in this version :

new and unique url : http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org/
you can search in the Release, Beta, Aurora and Trunk repositories
You can switch your language directly on the web page
the tmx files used in this version are available at :

http://transvision.frenchmozilla.org/TMX/


**********************************************

Behind the scene, the Release and Beta en-US repositories comes directly
from hg.mozilla.org, the Aurora and Trunk repositories comes from the
hg.mozilla.org.tr (thanks to them for the work). The repositories, the
TMX files and the glossary are updated each night at 2.00AM (UT+2).

The code is in the hg repo :

http://www.frenchmozilla.org/transvision/source/


*****************

What is removed for now :

doublon/duplicate script (I'll try to re-add it latter)
Alignment script, I'll try to re-add it directly on the same page
via an option
hg.frenchmozilla.org and hg-trunk.frenchmozilla.org are now
innactive (I don't think a lot of people used it anyway).


**********************

The future of this tool :

re-add alignment on the same page
add a term to term automatic glossary
re-add the duplicate search script
treat the html in the glossary correctly
if there is a popular demand, compare not only the en-US to a
locale, but also between locales (usefull for language with more than
one locale?).


************************

Feel free to contact me (on this thread or by email) if you find any
error/bug or if you think there is a feature missing.

As usual, I'm not an html guru and a good designer, if someone feels
that he can improve the design, go ahead :) That's true also for the code.

Best regards Philippe

Thanks a lot for your work, Philippe. Transvision is very useful for
us at es-ES team when we try to search for inconsistencies in our
translation.

Best regards,

Ricardo

adding my +++ in the name of SL l10n community. The memoire allowed us
to jump-start fennec at 80% pretranslated.

Two comments:

i) html tags do not get processed correctly.. for instance:

<p>&brandShortName; can't load this page for some reason.</p>
gets mangled into
pbrandShortName; can't load this page for some reason./p

this sucks, because it is so unexpected and silent - until filtered
out in the dashboard

ii) source segments without a corresponding target get a confusing
NONE translation, for instance

<tu tuid="browser:region.properties:gecko.handlerService.schemes.irc.
0.name" srclang="en-US">
<tuv xml:lang="en-US"><seg>Mibbit</seg></tuv>
<tuv xml:lang="sl"><seg>NONE</seg></tuv>
</tu>

my opinion: Better leave such segments out altogether

iii) (my caeterum censeo;): i would very much appreciate en-US tree,
with the
structure identical to other trees in l10n repos. Of course in X
variants
(miramar, aurora, beta ...) to be on the sure side.

Regards

Thanks for all the feedback, it helps a lot.

Ok, this is on my top priority list.

I used this "NONE" translation to find the untranslated strings.
I can put an option to make them invisible if needed.
