I’ve been working on a proposal for Google Summer of Code for the last three weeks. It consists on the rewriting of Gtranslator using Vala programming language. Gtranslator is the official Gnome .po file translation tool.
In spite of being the official application it’s quite buggy and it has an important lack of features if we compare it with other existent applications. In my opinion a rewriting in Vala, a much more friendly language than C with GObject, can help to increase the number of developers interested in the project.
The project mentor, Nicolás Satragno, has told me that defining a developing plan will be a great idea as a contribution to the project previous to the proposal submit. I have made this draft:
