Re: [libreoffice-website] website at Pootle? [was: Update of translation]

Hello Erich, Florian, Rimas

As far as I can see looking at 
https://github.com/tdf/cms-code/tree/master/mysite/lang
It gets updated from Pootle. Therefore I would not dare to change 
anything directly in the
php-file because I would think it might get overwritten the next time 
strings gets pulled from
Pootle. The last pull from the Pootle translations seem to be about a 
month ago by Rimas Kudelis.
I put him in CC.

So my impression is that the translations does in fact get pulled from 
Pootle, even if it is
done manually by someone in this case Rimas. I don't know how often it 
is pulled though.
I would also suppose that he's using a script to translate the po-file 
into the php-file.

Of course I might be missing something?
Is it really a good idea to update the php-file manually? Do you want me 
to create a patch
for the file:
https://github.com/tdf/cms-code/blob/master/mysite/lang/sv_SE.php

Regards,
Niklas Johansson
