Please add material as appropriate. == Questions == * Above, you write that this page is about "localization"...but the title is "i18n" and the second link above (the laptop.org one) explains that i18n and l10n are two different things. What exactly is this about? :) Also, what do you mean by "code localization"? (I've never been involved in this sort of stuff, so I don't know many of the terms. --DanDrake |
Internationalization of Sage Notebook
Internationalization is the adaptation of products for potential use virtually everywhere, while localization is the addition of special features for use in a specific locale. For those new to the topic, "i18n" is a short-hand for "Internationalization" referring to the 18 letters between the I and and N. Similarly, "l10n" is shorthand for "localization". For more information, see the section "Useful Links".
Note that this is only about the notebook. There are other efforts at translation of various documentation, such as on on this wiki for Italian, and at least some of Sage's tutorial or "tour" is currently translated into various languages. Please email sage-devel or open Trac tickets!
Project information
The initial pieces of the project are now complete. As of the end of 2014, we have the Sage notebook in seven languages.
- Czech
- German (Austrian)
- English (US)
- Spanish
- French
- Portuguese (Brazilian)
- Russian
We would love to have more! Among other requests we have had are
- Italian
- Korean
- Greek
- Ukrainian
Also, maintaining translations is an ongoing job.
The notes at https://github.com/sagemath/sagenb/blob/master/README.rst about localization should still be true.
Please see https://github.com/sagemath/sagenb/pull/238 for a better way to keep things updated, which needs review.
Old project description
This project would involve changing the Sage notebook so that the user interface language can be translated and changed on the fly. This project will require knowledge of Python, Mercurial, and basic web coding; knowing the GNU gettext utilities, Javascript, and the Jinja web templating system will be helpful. No knowledge of (human!) languages other than English is necessary.
Languages Requested
There have been repeated requests to localize Sage into different languages. Below is an alphabetical list of the requested languages:
Czech: Robert Mařík
French: Alex Ghitza, Bertrand Meyer, Marc Mezzarobba
German: Michael Abshoff
- Portuguese (Brazilian): Luiz Aquino.
Russian : Peter Ototsky
Spanish: Sean O'Quin, Oscar Lazo
Greek: Zafeirakis Zafeirakopoulos
If your language is missing please add it. In addition if you are willing to help out translating please add your name to the language in question.
