[Bf-translations-dev] Looking for Ideas and Suggestions for Improving Translation Workflow

[Gabriel Gazzán]

hi, Daniel:
take it as an approximation.
1 - 80% made by 1 person (me) 10% by 2 others.
2 - 2 months from 0% to 75%. 1 person doing it.
3 - i haven't worked on a regular basis, mostly on free time, but remember
working 2 or 3 entire nights on it and also some hours on weekends.
4 - yes, that's the hardest part. I'm dealing with this right now by
revising different parts of the program (just using it) to find errors in
the terms. sometimes I've found some terms that are wrong because they are
used in other contexts and can't be fixed in all places at a time, so the
PO will have to provide two strings for them. we're right now discussing
this issue.

I hope this helps.

cheers,
g
