Hi all translators - as you know, Mahara 1.1 has been released. So now it's time to, if you haven't already, create a 1.1_STABLE branch in your language string repository, so I can put a link for your language pack up on http://wiki.mahara.org/Download_Mahara

Here's what you do to create this branch:

Firstly, make sure you are on your master branch - git checkout master

Then, git checkout -b 1.1_STABLE. This will create a new local branch called 1.1_STABLE, and that branch will have the same contents that your master branch had.

Then, to push your branch to your repository: git push origin 1.1_STABLE.

After this, you should have either two or three branches in your local repository: 1.0_STABLE, 1.1_STABLE and master. As before, you switch to the correct branch to change a language string corresponding to where we make a string change.

Hope that's enough information for everyone. Please ask if you need assistance!

Hi - I've now gone through and linked up all the repos that currently have a 1.1_STABLE branch to have downloads available for 1.1. So now people can download Basque, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish language packs for Mahara 1.1 without fuss

Hi Nigel,

Thank you!

Thank you, Nigel.

Most of us are translating from the language files of the Mahara  v 1.0.9 stable.

Is this the only string that was modified from the v.1.0.9 to the 1.1 stable?

Hi - no, Mahara 1.1.0 is recently branched from master, and so has almost all of the strings that are currently on master. It would make sense to use the master language files on your 1.1 branch.

Hi Nigel

I finally have had the time to create a 1.1_STABLE branchfor the french translation. Thanks in advance to put an appropriate link in the wiki page.
