[TYPO3-dev] Any news about Extension translation?

[Stig Nørgaard Færch]

Hi

I was just wondering how the progress is on new extension translation tools?
Last year in this forum Ingo told about some plans of a translation 
feature on typo3.org. Has there been any development on this?

Also I have thought about a the possibility to translate extensions 
"inline". The idea is that you go into a "extension translation mode", 
so when you mouse is hovering over a text area, a box will open with a 
field where you can type the translation of the selected language.
To do this we could wrap each text field(only in this translation mode) 
with a span tag with a mouseover javascript function.

Why would this be cool?
Well, I have helped translating extensions to the danish language. One 
of the hardest things translating text fields on a list, is that the 
sentences/words are not in their context anymore. So sometimes it can be 
hard actually finding what the right translation is, without taking the 
extension for a spin (several times).
So if you could translate the extension directly when using it, I think 
it could make it a lot easier finding the best translations.

Well, that's just my thoughts...
