Hi,

this is only relevant to the PM groups of people who are not native English
speakers. Please forward the following message to your mailing list
preferably with a few words of recommendation.


As you might or might not know we are developing an IDE for Perl in Perl
called Padre. Among other things we would like to make it easily accessible
to people who don't know English well. For that reason several people have
been translating the GUI of Padre to other languages.
Currently there are 15 translations at various levels of completeness.


Recently we created a web page that allows us to easily see which
languages are there and what is the level of completeness of
the translation of Padre itself and that of the over 35 plugins.


Currently there are 436 strings in Padre and and additional 150 string
int the plugins that need translation.


It would be of great help both to our project and hopefully to the local perl
newbies to further improve the already existing translations and to translate
Padre into other languages as well.

You don't have to land all the translation at once, on the stats web page
we can track the progress of a translation once it is in our repository.

So if you are interested

*  Current status of the translations: http://www.perlide.org/translations/
* Instructions for translators: http://padre.perlide.org/wiki/TranslationIntro

What you need to do is
1) Install Padre
2) Register on http://padre.perlide.org/
3) check out Padre from SVN
4) Translate the first 50 strings
5) ask for a commit bit on #padre
6) Commit the first batch
7) Keep translating

regards
  Gabor

Every year the White Camels are presented for service to the Perl
community.

If you look at the previous winners, you'll notice that these are mostly
unsung heroes, like previous awardee Eric Cholet, the human moderator of
so many Perl mailing lists, or Jay Hannah, one of the people running
pm.org (if you ever created/maintained a pm group, chances are that Jay
walked you through the process).

Some of these people may be well known, like Allison Randal or Randal
Schwartz, while others may be complete strangers to at least part of the
globe, like Josh McAdams or Jay. Some of them may be extreme Perl
hackers who created the original JAPH, but they actually received this
award as a recognition for their community contributions to Perl rather
than for their programming ability.

That's not to say a great hacker can't receive the award, but you don't
have to be one in order to be eligible.

That being said, the nomination process for the 2009 White Camels is now
open.

If you think there's someone who deserves a White Camel, this is the
time for you to send in your nominations. Send them to
whitecamel-suggestions atpm.org, if possible with a subject along the
lines of "White Camel Nomination :: $name". Make sure you properly
identify the nominee and tell us why you think that's a worthy
nomination.

Don't go thinking "nah, somebody else will do it" because: a) everybody
else may be thinking the same, and b) you may state your case
differently than the next person.

We'll be receiving nominations until June 21, 2009, by midnight, but
don't wait up or you'll forget. Do it now!

I made a mistake on the original posting. The address to send to is
whitecamel-suggestions atperl.org, not pm.org. Sorry about that. If you
could update your followers, that would be great. corrected text below.
