Title

Easier internationalization

One line summary

Make it easier for community to propose EiffelStudio translation

Status

Not started

Description

Currently EiffelStudio translation is rather manual. We ask a few people to translate our PO files and then they submit it to us and we integrate that. However it lacks complete peer review as well it is time consuming to follow up on translator.

The idea of the project is to find the best platform that will let people propose translations that gets integrated to EiffelStudio subversion repository almost automatically without loosing on the quality of the translation.

We currently have some wiki pages describing the process under the Internationalization category.
