Re: Fedora 10 will have localized installer for Hebrew

(please note, I am cross posting)


KDE 4.1 has no official Hebrew translation in KDE 4.0 and KDE 4.1, since 
it did not qualify: it did not have enough percentage to be an official 
translation. See here:

http://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kde4/essential/


Basically, an official language needs to have:desktop_kdelibs.po >=75%, 
desktop_l10n.po >= 75%, kdebase >= 75% and kdelibs4.po >= 90%. The 
reason for that, is that no one was working on translating KDE 4.x. 
Pretty simple.


If you look here: http://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/trunk-kde4/essential/ 
you will see that KDE 4.2 to be released in January will probably meet 
those numbers. KDE4.2 is also fixed (been fixed!) in various places to 
properly support Hebrew as good it did in KDE3, but the work is being 
done in trunk (4.2) and not branch. As I said to the Ubuntu guys, if you 
really want I can backport the translations from 4.2 to 4.1, but I 
cannot guarantee that the product will have a decent quality, as it's 
not been tested for RTL compliance.
