Finding what to translate
First of all package creator/maintainer have to create *.pot file with all messages included. Search for this files in source tree and you can edit them.
Translating
Rule of thumb: It's better to have some translation than nothing, so feel free to translate.
Software
There are specialised tools for *.pot (*.po) files edition gtranslator, po4a, poedit, pootle, potool ...
Most of text editors will fit also: vim, emacs, ed ...
Updating source tree
| TODO: descript SVN update after editing (See: To-Do List) |
Notes
- Encoding for *.po is UTF-8
- Most of packages in Openembedded tree allready iternationalised, its worth to review them
