Hello again dear language fellows!

We are getting ready for the next SW release, 3.0.3. This time there are about 30 - 40 strings to be translated depending on the language. We would kindly ask you to do your part by the end of Sunday, 7th April. If you have any concerns, problems, or questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Please note the following:

store-categories:

The store categories have now been re-stored but they are available only for official languages in the community Pootle. All category translations are coming from the Jolla Store server, and are not kept on device, hence would not work with community languages (downloaded as custom language packs from openrepos.net), that's why we enabled translating categories only into official languages. Hopefully one day we'll take community ones too.

jolla-settings-accounts:

Changes in the following string IDs:

jolla_settings_accounts_extensions-la-google_consent_text (change "Google Talk" → "Gmail" and "Message" → "Email")

jolla_settings_accounts_extensions-la-facebook_consent_text (remove the line with "Facebook notifications will be added to Events, and you will be able to post status updates on Facebook")

Please check that the translations are according to the UK English. They may not show correctly that they were changed. We tick marked them to have the status "Needs work".

Another reminder, always use the English UK as the source for your translations, not Engineering English (offline translation tools, e.g. where you grab XLIFF file, use Engineering English as source, resulting in many inconsistent translations).

Without further ado, please head to https://translate.sailfishos.org and follow link for instructions if you're there for the first time :)

Thank you & regards,
Sim & Jarkko
