Hello, NaBaCo,

for your offer of assistance!

That's nice! The more languages we know the more problems can be
foreseen and solved the smart way.
I'm a German native speaker, by the way.

Great! This is the main issue we consider at the moment.

It's not completely frozen but advancing slowly. I try to contribute
at least a step a week, probably more. (BTW, the last weeks, I didn't
have enough time but I'll contribute again soon.)
In January 2018 we decided to remove the translators from our
Transifex project but keep it accessible to the maintainers
(blacklight, Desobediente, me, mfc, Andrew David Wong and Marek
Marczykowski-Górecki).
The main reasons for this step were
- - We didn't upload new documents, so, the translators wasted time in
translating old stuff which would never go live.
- - We couldn't help solving issues there since we had (and still have
to some extent) no idea about the details of the infrastructure.
Now, we want to
- - develop a detailled localization infrastructure,
- - write a translation workflow including translation guidelines,
- - test the workflow
- - and finally re-open our project at Transifex again.
Currently, we write localization issues at the `QubesOS/qubes-issues`
repo for specifying (the details of) a translation workflow. We could
find nice solutions for many problems but there are still some left.
See the `localization`-labelled issues there:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/labels/localization
> so I'd like to know where can I help?
A good start might be to go through the communication channels
concerning localization to get an idea of what's the current state:
This mailing list, the issues repo and our project at Transifex.
If you have a GitHub account and Transifex account, this would be
great. If you don't have one and don't want to register then you may
also write to this mailing list and I'll copy the relevant parts of
your contributions to the GitHub repo and such. It's up to you!
