Welsh .po files

Although I don't speak Welsh I would like to get a collection of Welsh translations together for Drupal.

I thought I would play around with the translation modules on my blog last night and installed french, spanish and welsh. French and spanish both had a few hundred core translations, welsh had none and there are no downloadable welsh translations I can see.

Are there any?
Can we do somthing about it?
Do I need to learn welsh?

Help!

If you don't speak Welsh, you'll have to find someone who does. Perhaps you could ask your client to pay for a freelance translator.

Last time I looked there was some talk of a welsh translation, but it never emerged (see here).

You could always set up, host and run a Welsh Localisation Server. Its pretty straight-forward (I've done it once but other commitments meant I couldn't pursue it).

You would, as mvc says, also need one or two (or even a handful) of trusted, fluent Welsh+English speakers to contribute and help moderate.

I don't speak a word of welsh, but being a welsh resident I think a Welsh PO file is needed.

I am willing to setup a site and allow users to add translations, I can then export the PO file and commit it to Drupal.org.

Hi Tim, my company has started work on a complete translation for welsh - I hope to get the po files uploaded this side of Christmas if possible, otherwise very early Jan.

Undecided about whether to set up a translation server yet or not - as the plan is for a global drupal one in due course...

Hi James - do you have any news on the Welsh translation? My company may be doing a bilingual English-Welsh site soon, so this would be incredibly useful.

Cheers,

Alex.

Just a quick update, we have all but finished a complete translation of Drupal 6 and all the Acquia modules, and will be releasing it on drupal.org for the community at DrupalCon Paris next week.

Will post a news article on http://www.website-express.co.uk/ when it's live.

All the best,
James
