Transifex has fixed the upload bug

I just lost hours of my work on another project, so I guess a big
warning is in order.

Transifex has a new "feature" that if you correct some strings offline
and then upload, Transifex will silently ignore your changes. At least
with translator permissions, I haven't checked yet if this also happened
with reviewer permissions.

Already reviewed strings are now completely impossible to correct
offline - at least the upload window will inform our about that one.

I already contacted Transifex about the issue.

Good luck with reporting a bug :P

They broke recently plural forms for Polish translations and they seem to not care at all. They actually could say:
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; plural=whatever-you-want;\n"
rather than broken
"Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; plural=(n==1 ? 0 : (n%10>=2 && n%10<=4) && (n%100<12 || n%100>=14) ? 1 : n!=1 && (n%10>=0 && n%10<=1) || (n%10>=5 && n%10<=9) || (n%100>=12 && n%100<=14) ? 2 : 3);\n"
but nevermind...

I remember them adding the 4th plural rule for Polish due to a change in the CLDR and making an announcement about it:

http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/30/s ... es.html#pl

So, if that's broken, the Polish community needs to file a ticket with the CLDR, because that will affect all kings of software.

Transifex have found the bug :)

I asked them to get back to me when they have fixed it.

Transifex managed to fix the bug where translators couldn't change strings offline. So, you can now all go back to translating as usual :)

Hey,

We have placed a fix with RafaƂ's suggestion. It's not deployed yet, but it should go live within the next week.

Thanks,


It took them a while to get it that they had a <= vs. < bug in the rule, but then they fixed it.

Yesterday I received an email from them and indeed it looks that they eventually fixed it. Now I have to correct the broken plural forms pattern in STK ;)
