I can share my experience as localizer for Xwiki in Latvian.
Hi,
some texts used in the login dialog are neither in ApplicationResources_de.properties nor
in ApplicationResources.properties
nor in i10n.xwiki.org. And using i10n.xwiki.org is very ugly and inefficient. You can
drink a cup of coffee after sending a request
First few thousand of lines I translated offline using resource file and
it was imported by Ludovic Dubost.
Further improvements/additions I do online. Provided search was not good
enough for me, so I helped to improve it.
Actually I'd like to change it once more because for me searching by
(poorly) translated text, not the key is more usual. What do you think?
To solve issue that site is quite slow, it should be investigated about
caching possibilities, or import/export tool would be nice, but somebody
needs to develop it.
Though, if so many people can live with Windows, i10n.xwiki.org is not
the worst one, which teaches us to manage our time with computer
accordingly ;-)
The following text is part of the login dialog
key:remembermeonthiscomp found in i10n, ApplicationResources(de,default)
Text:Auf diesem Computer angemeldet bleiben
However, there are translated texts like "Forgot your username?". Obviously
they are not used at this place.
it seems on the long run I have to check the code directly.
Currently not all labels are made to use external resources, but it is
changing incrementally.
