Reposting here from the forums:

Good news: I'm just about to get a Bitcoin-Qt version 0.5 Release
Candidate 1 out, with a much-improved GUI.

Bad news: all the translations for the old wxWidgets Bitcoin are
obsolete, and the process for making translations is different.

Is anybody willing to write new translations?  Here's what you'll need to know:

Three translations already exist: de nl and ru.
Translations are stored in ".ts" files in the src/qt/locale folder
The 'QT Linguist' tool can be used to create translations
... or maybe an online tool like Transifex could/should be used to
crowd-source the work

And is anybody willing to take the job of coordinating translation
efforts, figuring out if Transifex is a good tool to use, and writing
some documentation to make it easy for people to create and submit new
translations?

Hi!

 I can translate it to Brazilian Portuguese.

Best,

Please at least get Coinbaser merged for 0.5. It has had a lot of testing on 
Eligius for months, a landslide of support for the new JSON-RPC method (as 
requested), and I have even gone to the effort to document it. As I will no 
longer be using bitcoind for Eligius soon, I have little incentive to 
maintain/rebase coinbaser across a 0.6 development period.

FWIW, Gavin's IRC response more or less amounts to being unwilling to merge 
this even though it was ready, tested, and even fulfilled his original request 
for community support for the new JSON-RPC call, all long before he announced 
the feature freeze on 0.5... hopefully it'll get merged to 0.6 git before it 
needs a rebase. :/

What will you be using instead? Isn't bitcoind a requirement for running a
pool?

Writing some custom software designed to more efficiently create work.
To clarify, bitcoind will still serve the purpose of peering with external 
nodes and picking out valid transactions to be accepted into blocks; it just 
won't be involved in the primary operations of the pool.

Ah, I see. Sounds a bit like the direction Steve is going with poolserverj.
So your custom software would handle incrementing the extraNonce,
recalculating the merkle tree/root, and so on?

Yes, does that already. Hard part right now is implementing a stateless TCP/IP 
"stack" so it can ignore DDoS sanely.

I have exported all .ts to transifex.

https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/bitcoin/resource/tx/

I'm now trying to figure out how to use it but it looks like

tx pull && git add src/qt/locale/* && git commit src/qt/locale/ && git push

will be all that's needed to push translation updates from transifex to
github.

If you add Norwegian Bokmål, I can do that one. Language code "nb".

I think it's possible to add it yourself. Just click on "add translation"

What do you know, it worked. Finished.

Once again Norway finishes ahead of Sweden. :P

By the way, I had to translate some of the exact same strings 2-3 times.
That's something you may want to improve on.

Actually no, the same string may have to be translated in different ways
depending on the context they appear in. That sometimes happens for italian,
and I'm sure it happens in other cases too. Not sure whether this is the
cause for duplicate strings for now, but it might.

Chris

Indeed. It could make sense. That's the reason why Qt distinguishes strings
based on context as well as content.

But it could also be nonsense. Can you be more specific as to which strings?

Three quick examples of duplicated strings. There are many more. Some of
the smaller ones may make sense to have duplicated several times in
english as their translated versions may differ in other languages. But
with these below I don't see the point.

Twice, with a small difference (<b> vs. none):

WARNING: If you encrypt your wallet and lose your passphrase, you will
<b>LOSE ALL OF YOUR BITCOINS</b>! Are you sure you wish to encrypt your
wallet?

WARNING: If you encrypt your wallet and lose your passphrase, you will
LOSE ALL OF YOUR BITCOINS! Are you sure you wish to encrypt your wallet?

Again twice, with a small difference (%s vs %1):

This transaction is over the size limit. You can still send it for a fee
of %1, which goes to the nodes that process your transaction and helps
to support the network. Do you want to pay the fee?

of %s, which goes to the nodes that process your transaction and helps

Twice, looks exactly the same:

Generated coins must wait 120 blocks before they can be spent. When you
generated this block, it was broadcast to the network to be added to the
block chain. If it fails to get into the chain, it will change to "not
accepted" and not be spendable. This may occasionally happen if another
node generates a block within a few seconds of yours.

Fixed:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/commit/8d3e1becf0fa6c27c7df4a52daf181282a3d2468

It seems that somehow strings from the old Wx UI had ended up in
bitcoinstrings.cpp. I re-ran the string extraction script and the duplicated
messaged should be gone.
