iTunes Sync and Localization

Tue, Jul 17, 2007

Just a quick update about iTunes Sync and the planned localization support. I have had an overwhelming response to include a German interface option in the next release of iTunes Sync. Amongst this response I have had about 1 person per day volunteering to help translate the interface. Fantastic! I have had to start turning people away because I have enough people already to help with German, but if you’re interested in a different language just drop me a line. You can be sure that I will try my best to get German support into the next release.

Thanks to everyone!

Hi Jon,

Are your volunteers utilizing a translation memory backend to leverage previously translated text / strings / phrases? Will the documentation and online help also be localized into German?

I would be interested in speaking with you briefly. Please respond to my email address (included).

Thanks
Kristin

Hi Jon, I’m a long-time user of your software and it’s is the first time I contact you.
I don’t have a international credit card to make a donation, but I could say thanks translating you software to spanish, I’ve experience in translation and localization, so if you want it, count with me.
