[Kolab-devel] Testing Webclient Translations

Dear all,

recently several people had questions about how to test their translations for 
our webclient. As you know, we handle translation in Transifex [1] and it can 
take some time until they are pulled into the source, packaged and delivered 
to the proper repositories.

If you really want to see your translation in action *before* they are 
officially shipped you have to manually install them on your _development_ 
system.

There is two options for this:

1. (hackish)
Download the translated files ("Download for use") from Transifex and put them 
in the proper location in your file system potentially overwriting the 
existing files.

2. (suggested)
You can use the tool from Transifex to connect local folders with the 
Transifex translations. Then you can always use `tx pull` to update them from 
Transifex. The config files needed for this can be found in our git 
repositories [2] [3].

It would be nice if whoever tries one of these options, could document the 
process in a little more details, especially the locations of the various 
plugins within the filesystem for the GNU/Linux distribution you are using. 
Please share any documentation on this list.

Thanks and Kind Regards,
Torsten
