It seems that the invitation code mechanism is working as intended, including the way the client connects to the project. (That was the part which had problems earlier.) To finish the job I'd like to request some help from the crew to do the 'internationalization'.

When invitation codes are in use the web pages need to display an additional field on a form, and various error messages might need to be displayed. These need to be translated into other languages. Here are the phrases which need to be translated:

"Invitation Code"

"A valid invitation code is required to create an account"

"NOTE: unless an invitation code is required, "
"you can also create an account by running BOINC on your computer, "
"selecting 'Attach Project', and entering an email address and
password."

"You must supply an invitation code to create an account."

"The invitation code you gave is not valid."

If you can translate these into Spanish, German, French, Italian, or any other language then I would be much obliged, and I will pass the results on to the BOINC developers along with the code I'm submitting soon.

The easy way for you to do this is of course to simply post the translations here, but if anybody is feeling the need to 'do it right' then you can download the file en.po, edit it appropriately, and then upload the modified version here. Be sure to change the name and address in the file to your own, so that you get the proper credit for your translators efforts.

As always, thank you very much for helping improve BOINC.

Danish (Dansk):

"Invitation Code" – Invitationskode

"A valid invitation code is required to create an account" – En gyldig invitationskode er nødvendig for at oprette en konto

"NOTE: unless an invitation code is required, " – BEMÆRK: Medmindre en invitationskode er nødvendig,

"you can also create an account by running BOINC on your computer, " – kan De også oprette en konto mens De kører BOINC på Deres computer

"selecting 'Attach Project', and entering an email address and password." - ved at vælge “Tilmeld projekt” og indtaste en email adresse og et password.

----------------------------------------------------

"You must supply an invitation code to create an account." – De skal indtaste en invitationskode for at oprette en konto.

"The invitation code you gave is not valid." - Invitationskoden, De indtastede, er ikke gyldig.



Arrrr....

I could also try to post the translation here, but the last attempts with my alphabet few months ago were not successful... Let's give it a try:

Slovak (Slovensky)

"Invitation Code" - "Uvítací kód"

"A valid invitation code is required to create an account" - "Platný uvítací kód je vyžadovaný pre vytvorenie účtu"

...and let's see how it displays:

I uploaded the Danish translation of the en.po file as a txt file.

Please check if it's ok.

And I made it less formal as the former translation, adressing you as you singular and not as You plural, as we do here of civility to strangers. (Not so much used anymore)

But check it out. :-)

I've uploaded pirates.sk.po file. In order to keep original english texts available for the translator person, I copied the msgstr "..." lines in front of the corresponding msgid "..." lines and prefixed them with # , thus making it readable as a comment. Feel free to discard them.

I was offline some hours while I slept, so I guess I missed some of the gold rush. :-(

But I said "Behold me eyes!" when I saw me stats. Then I had to look here and yes, some gold (dustgrains) had been handed out.

So cheers in grog. :-D Arrrrr....

Thank you. Though I'm not sure that this feature is completely working (yet).

Less formal (and less civil) certainly seems appropriate for Pirates.

is it already translated into german?

[Edit - had some boredom]

I can already see a few of the SK translations on the pages (....), but only a little part of them, most are still in english.

Some texts on Main Page, Help!, Message Boards and Your Account pages are displayed translated (including the Powered by Boinc!), but on the Project Status page everything is English (even the same link names on the top of page).

It seems that there is no sk.po (yet) for BOINC in general. Interested in doing that one too?

Have you some secret map handy for finding that treasure of words out, Capt'n? (Or is it the main Web and GUI translations page?)

But I was only surprised that the page titles on the Project Status page is not translated as on the rest of pages.

That is it exactly, and you should follow the instructions there for contacting the translation coordinator.

But I was only surprised that the page titles on the Project Status page is not translated as on the rest of pages.

This is probably because this page is cached, so what you are seeing is the page when it was generated by someone else, in English.

[...]Suppose you view a page when the cached copy has expired, so a new one is generated, in Slovakian. That is fine for you, but then for the next hour (or whatever the interval is) everybody who views that page gets the Slovakian version[...]
