Subject: Status of i18n patches
Date: Sun, 13 Oct 2002 16:57:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200210131822.g9DIMIm7001524@mira.informatik.hu-berlin.de> (raw)

In GCC, translators of messages are faced with significant problems
when translating them. In many cases, messages are created by pasting
fragments of sentences. While this may work for English, it fails for
other languages.

A few months ago, Paolo Bonzini has created a patch that solves some
of these problems:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-06/msg01620.html

Can somebody please work with Paolo to apply this patch? 

If the patch is not acceptable in its current form, could someone
please give Paolo reasons for rejection?

If the patch needs to be split into several chunks, could somebody
please give Paolo directions on what parts of the patch can be more
readily integrated than others?

Thanks for your attention,
Martin
