posted by: brezerk on: 14 Jan 2017

After some experiments and tests. I decided to start using Weblate instead of pootle.

It provides flexible and simple git integration as well as github and google authentication via OAuth2.

Currently this new tool has been deployed and configured. It is available via i18n.brezblock.org.ua url;

Let me know if any issues.

Thanks.

Hello.

q4wine project was started about 8 years ago. It still continue to evolve from an simple 7-lines 'Hello World' application written just for fun in late 2008 :)

It was a long run. I am really impressed with OpenSource development model. Unfortunately, q4wine has a lot of design issues and limitations. It is really hard to support and add new features. To get rid of this, I am planning to rewrite it completely from scratch.

I do have some new ideas to try, but it will be nice to hear ideas, suggestions or comments from the end users.

So it's my call to you: if you have something to say I'm ready to listen.
