Two Ways to Submit Translation Work

[Dem Pilafian]

We now have two ways to submit translations for Snap Backup.

1) E-Mail

Download the properties file from "http://www.snapbackup.com/translate/".  Then, edit the properties file and e-mail the updated properties file to this mailing list ("snapbackup...@googlegroups.com").  Someone on the mailing list (probably me) will put your properties file into the Snap Backup project.

This approach is simple, but there is no practical way to test your properties file before submitting it to the mailing list.  If you are feeling a little more adventurous, the alternative is to submit your properties file directly into the Snap Backup project.

2) Direct Contribution

This approach involves setting up the Snap Backup project on your computer and submitting your properties file directly into the project repository hosted on Google Code.  For instructions, check out:

New Features

A couple new features are in need of translation.  Snap Backup 5.1 added a feature to check for updates.  To see the feature, go to the "Help" menu and select "Check for Updates".  Snap Backup 5.0 added a feature to export and import your settings.  This enables users to move their Snap Backup settings to a new computer.  To see this feature, go to the "File" menu and choose "Export Settings...".

If you have any questions, please feel free to use this mailing list so we all have a chance to help each other and to share knowledge.
