Afrikaans Translators needed

[Raithlin]

I've started the process to translate the Silverstripe CMS into Afrikaans. I'm doing what I can, but my native language is English. Any takers, apply at translate.silverstripe.org.

Any help would be appreciated. This is an awesome Open Source (BSD license) CMS that could go far.

Google Translate does English<->Afrikaans, or do they prefer the human element?

I'm guessing the human element would be preferable... AI translation can only go so far...

I'm navitely Boer, so maybe I can give it a shot.

EDIT: Ok, registered... Awaiting my login details.

It's quite specific, actually. You get a list of phrases that need to be translated.

Fair enough, was just "throwing it out there".

Google Translate comes in very handy for us non-boer's who have to work with you boer types and keep getting email in that strange language you speak

Seriously though - still waiting for my login details. Can it really take this long?

I've translated a few terms during the day whilst sitting at a client on technical support stand-by... Felt good to contribute!

 

[Raithlin]

Thanks, mate. There's a lot of translation still to be done...

 

[FarligOpptreden]

I get on every now and again and do a page or two... I've contributed 377 strings so far.

 

[Raithlin]

Thanks, mate. I need to get in and continue, now that the new release is out.

I also need to get back to it... haven't translated ANYTHING during April!
