«%l» is my <b>native language</b> or <b>a language I can speak fluently</b>. I'm aware that the person who asked for this translation, wishes it is of <b>high quality</b> and <b>done by a fluent speaker</b>.

The text I've just submitted is written in the following language: %l

Only translate into your native language or a language you can speak fluently

Before accepting a translation, check that there aren't any comments or multiple translation choices in the main translation as it would corrupt the [1]ratio between the numbers of characters by language[/1]. If needed, edit and move the comments or the less plausible translation choices into the "%s" field of the form.

The hard disk of the cucumis.org web server has crashed yesterday :( .

The data were restored from the 9h january. [b]Many translations, messages, wiki articles and members are lost[/b], and I'm sorry for that. All avatars pictures are also lost. I invite deleted members to register again and [b]send a message in the forums to get back their former status[/b] (Number of points, Expert rank etc...). [b]All members are invited to request their points back[/b].

I hope it won't happen again as it took me the whole week-end to repair and it's not yet completed.

Happy new year 2006 to all cucumis.org visitors :)

[b]What has changed since the last news entry?[/b]

- Cucumis.org has grown fast as there are now more than [link=u__]1900 members[/link] and about 20 new members a day. Many new languages have been added to the cucumis.org interface: Chinese, Hebrew, Swedish, and Brazilian Portuguese. A big thanks to the cucumis.org members who translated it.

- The [link=p__]project section[/link] is up and running but nobody knows how it works :) . It's mainly dedicated to webmasters who want to translate their websites. They can submit their text to be translated on cucumis.org and invite their visitors to translate on cucumis.org. Cucumis.org will get new members and the webmasters will be able to use the translation engine of cucumis.org and the expertise of cucumis.org members.

- An affiliation program has been developed to reward those who put a link on their personal websites or blogs to talk about cucumis.org. Instead of using the [note]http://www.cucumis.org/[/note] classic url, you can use this url: [linkid=w_in_[userid]]. [transrefid=464] There is also a similar affiliation link for the webmasters who manage a project on cucumis.org, to invite their visitors to translate their website on cucumis.org, with the same advantages: [linkid=w_in_myProjectId].

- The multi-language Babylon dictionary has been inserted on the translation pages at the bottom of the side menu. It's a very useful tool and it's not intrusive at all.

- The wiki engine has been set. Some parts of the cucumis.org interface, as well as details and tutorials about how the website should be used, are now embedded in wiki articles. Wiki articles are more flexible than the language files of the cucumis.org interface, as they can be edited at any time by any member. The wiki articles of the cucumis.org interface can also be translated from the [link=t__]translation homepage[/link] using the link "[transrefid=865]".

- It's now possible to post comments on all parts of the website, including news and wiki articles.

[b]What's next?[/b]

- A language course section is currently under development. Each member of cucumis.org will be able to create a wiki lesson about his favorite language.

- A java applet is under development to offer the possibility to record and play back audio samples for the language courses.

- A java or flash applet will be developed to draw illustrations for the language courses.

- I don't understand why the ratio of members having done at least one translation is so small... Maybe I should try to improve the interface and I need [link=f__]your feed back[/link] on this...

Hello all, and thanks for your support. The translation of the user interface is progressing fast, Spanish, Esperanto and Russian are already online. Greek, Hebrew and Romanian are nearly completed. Swedish, Chinese (simplified), Nepali and Arabic are progressing nicely.

The Cucumis.org engine is now nearly ready. I had a dream to build a huge community of translators to help interesting and useful multilanguage projects. In fact, Cucumis still needs to find its way and its users. We really need your feedback and your thoughts. [link=f]The forum[/link] is now running and is waiting for your ideas.
