GNOME Color Manager

Hey,

A few of us have started a new project called gnome-color-manager.
It's in gnome git, and it's nearly ready for its first release, but I
really wanted somebody to review the strings to make sure they make
sense and that they are easily translatable. My English grammar is not
good, and so review at this stage (before I ask for translations) is
probably a good idea.

So, if you have a few spare minutes, could you please checkout
gnome-color-manager and review the strings. If you spot a trivial
spelling or grammar error, or just want to add a translator comment,
please just commit to git master without even asking (I trust you!).
If you want clarification what a string means, or the context is
unclear, please email me and i'll add some additional translator
markup.

Thanks,

Richard.

Thanks for being so open to translator needs :-)

I've added the module to l10n.gnome.org and removed the markup from
strings in GTKBuilder files.

Well, without good translations the project would be a failure, so you
could say I need you guys more than you need me :-)

Well, the hardware device is a "colorimeter device" similar to
http://www.pantone.com/pages/products/product.aspx?pid=79 which you
stick on the LCD or CRT screen with little suckers. You only need to
profile the center of the screen, and so you know where to position
it, a grey square appears which you put the device inside.

You must be referring to a "profiling device" or a "spider"?
Does the term have to be so generic?

Best,

Spyder is just one type. Profiling device is probably fine.

I've found 3 strings to be modified:

../data/gnome-color-manager.schemas.in.h:1
"...Microsoft has always used a value 2.2" -> "Microsoft has always used
a value of 2.2."

../src/gcm-calibrate.c:315
"Please attach the hardware device to the center of the screen on the
grey square." -> "Please attach the hardware device to the center of the
screen on the gray square."

help/C/gnome-color-manager.xml
"<application>&app;</application> is usually started in GNOME startup,
but" -> "<application>&app;</application> is usually started at GNOME
startup, but"

All three look fine to me. Please commit. For such trivial changes as
this in the future, just commit fixes, no need to ask. Thanks.

Richard.
