The original language of Mod_Survey is english in a wide sense. However, since most of the contributors are not native english speakers, it is a mixture of british, american and bad english. A translation to american or british english would included pretty much the same process as any other translation, but would mainly consist of correcting bad english. Thus, native english speakers are welcome to provide a translation too.
Instructions
If you want to help out with mod_survey but don't want to code, you could always write a translation, or finish an existing translation. This is what you do:
- Download a language file (for example fr.po) which represents the language you wish to work on. If no language file fits, use template.po. The language files are available here
- Download the translation tool script
- Put files in same directory and cd to that location
- Run perl translate.pl [language file]
- (optional) manually edit the head of the file to state you are the author and so on
- When finished, send the updated .po to the mailing list (preferred) or to me
