Hi,
Is it possible to reuse translations from other projects ?
-
Assuming that a new translatable string ( e.g. _(“Hello”) ) has been added to a project. Is it possible to use the translations for this string in the PO file of this project if available, else lookup a global table ( 1 per language ), for this translation if match == 100 %. This database can be updated by something like a “mandb” trigger on package installation. There might be technical issues in this, like keeping the global database small and with meaningful entries ( only strings which are general enough, not project specific ).
-
Same as [1], but if I already know that a particular project has used the string _(“Hello”), and has translations available for it in more languages, how can I import them into the current project’s PO files, without performing the task manually. This is basically [1] at build time ( to avoid [1] at runtime ), which can be a fallback for [2] .

Will [2] be acceptable to translators.
