Translation
Prepare yourself for a lot of suffering:
- warn the i18n coordinator in advance
- copy translation to stable-kde4 (use the calligra-release.rb scripts in calligra's release scripts )
- update scripty for stable translations (edit scripts/get_paths change the get_path function, and check that list_modules contains calligra):
svn+ssh://[email protected]/home/kde/branches/stable/l10n-kde4/scripts
- update branches/stable/l10n-kde4/scripts/documentation_paths with the calligra git branch
- announce it to translators (CCMAIL:[email protected])
- update branch in calligra project page settings: https://projects.kde.org/projects/calligra/settings
