Re: Update simplified Chinese (zh_CN) translation & please convert to UTF-8

[Dongsheng Song-3]

Yes, we use the SM as our webmail too[1].

After you commit Frank Wong's effort, msgmerge with squirrelmail.pot of
SM-1_4-STABLE:
1065 translated messages, 62 fuzzy translations, 25 untranslated messages.

msgmerge with squirrelmail.pot of trunk:
1249 translated messages, 180 fuzzy translations, 92 untranslated messages.

I fixed the fuzzy and untranslated messages for SM-1_4-STABLE[2].

Can we maintain Chinese translation for SM-1_4-STABLE and trunk at the
same time ?

Nice, but you should consider upgrading to 1.4.15 when it's out.

Thanks. BTW, you don't have to add it to the tracker. Posting it here
should be sufficient.

Yes, that's possible. HEAD (trunk/locales/) contains the strings for DEVEL
(trunk/squirrelmail/) and STABLE, and when I branch off 1.4.15 it's
possible to keep those strings updated separately.

If I don't hear from Frank before releasing the language pack for 1.4.15
I'll use your updated version (and update to UTF-8). I'll try to compare
your translations as well to see if you've translated things differently.

Sincerely,
Fredrik

I'm glad to have a partner.
I downloaded your effort and diff'ed it with mine. Apart from the newly
merged message, the result still shows a lot of inconsistency. I'd like to
work with your to solve them before we can commit a new version. I'll
email you my remark on the diff file later.
As of converting to UTF-8, I agree we should use it sooner than later, but
I recommend testing it first before we jump into the water due to my past
experiment against SM-1.4.13. I had to modify some of the source files,
say src/view_text.php and functions/mime.php, to make Simplified Chinese
displayed correctly. I also altered some of other files to replace a few
gettext strings to its Chinese translation due to missing message in the
po file or whatever reason makes them remain English. Hopefully your work
covers them all. I'll test UTF-8 translation against the SM-1.4.15-rc1
later to see if it works.

Regards,
Frank Wang
