Dear debian administrators,
on behalf of some debian translators and internationalizers, I would like to
ask you how we could install the pootle software somewhere on the debian
machines.
This tool is to help online colaborative translation work. Its mainpage is
over here: http://translate.sourceforge.net/
The requirements are listed here:
http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootleadmin
Extract:
1. at least 512MB RAM, preferably 1GB or more (with multiple active
projects, Pootle can easily use 300MB of RAM ...)
2. enough disk space to hold the PO files for all the projects, plus some
extra ... (20MB per copy of OpenOffice.org should be OK)
3. at least a 2GHz processor
Plus python 2.3
Concerning the disk space, I think I'll try to push all po-debconf
translation in the system for now. For the record, I'm one of those who
created the w.d.o/intl/l10n pages, and I hope to reuse all the scripts done
for this to feed the pootle. So, we may end up using up to 5Gb of po files.
That's a maximum, I don't think we'll go above 2Gb, but I prefer to play
safe.
I could of course start a new alioth project for this or put it on gluck at
least for the begining, but I prefered to as you, admins, where you would
prefer to see this to be placed.
Thanks for your work,
Mt.
