If everything works smoothly, the next stable version of #OmegaT (6.0) will be released on the 15th of May.

OmegaT 6.0 will require Java 11 to run. Machines that cannot upgrade to Java 11 will be able to use an equivalent Java 8.0 version (numbered 5.8).

We'll keep you updated!

@OmegaTOfficial

finally got the translation done for new version of #opentoonz . This time I use #OmegaT to maintain the job, it worked great than expected.

Complex sentence-ending rules for Emacs based on OmegaT and Okapi Framework regular expressions

"This repo ports complex sentence-ending rules from OmegaT and the Okapi Framework to Emacs Lisp, and then provides sentence-based functions based on the rules. Two movement functions exist: sentex-forward-sentence and sentex-backward-sentence, as well as sentex-kill-sentence."

@ljwrites Nice. I didn't know about the Noto CJK series.

On a side note, #OmegaT 6.0 will come with a larger font size default.

@JustAnotherTL That might be of interest to @DidierBriel and the #OmegaT crowd

Et hop, je n'avais rien à faire de plus pressant donc j'ai pensé que traduire l'interface et le manuel d'OmegaT en français pas exclusif ça serait chouette.

Ça n'est pas juste un exercice de style, mais vraiment une tentative de tenir compte du fait que selon la SFT plus de 80% des traducteurs sont des traductrices.

3 years in the making, #OmegaT 6.0 is now very close to a release.

Weird how everything shifts to slow motion as one gets closer to the end of the process...

J’avance avec difficulté dans « Ce que parler veut dire ».

Difficulté parce que #Bourdieu c’est des phrases de 20 lignes, et pleines de sens. Donc il faut reprendre la phrase pour retrouver sa structure, et s’assurer qu’on n’a rien oublié.

Je me dis qu’après s’être tartiné Bourdieu, lire du #Java ça doit passer comme une lettre à la poste. Ben non.

Donc il y a autre chose.

Et peut-être que pour mieux lire Bourdieu, il faut que je me mette à écrire comme Bourdieu, ou en tout cas à écrire des trucs un peu complexes. Alors, j’ai commencé. Depuis la semaine dernière, et pendant 4 mois (jusqu’à la remise de mon mémoire de master), je me force à écrire 500 mots par jour. Des mots qui doivent faire sens et qui doivent s’inscrire dans l’objectif qui est de pondre 45 000 mots structurés qui apportent quelque chose à la « connaissance » (et dans mon cas, ça sera probablement, et très simplement, une validation, ou invalidation, d’intuitions nées de 35+ ans de pratique du kendo en dents de scie, et de 25+ ans de vie au Japon).

Et quand j’aurai fini ça, ou en parallèle si je suis vraiment à l’aise, mais ça m’étonnerait, je me mettrai à écrire du Java, pour qu’un jour j’arrive à pondre des trucs qui font sens pour #OmegaT.

En attendant, j'ai 1000 mots de retard ce week-end... 😅

The Stax filters that were developped for the EU-DGT version of #OmegaT have just been included into OmegaT!!!

https://github.com/omegat-org/omegat/pull/356

Available in the nightly build later today 🥳

https://sourceforge.net/projects/omegat/files/Nightly/

Day by day, the nightly build is getting closer to what we want OmegaT 6.0 to look like.

We live in super exciting times !!!😃

Thank you Thomas for your had work and thank you @miurahr for the integration.

What are the best practices in documentation authoring?

The #OmegaT community needs to find a process to properly document new features and the evolution of OmegaT, in sync with software development.

We need to properly structure our documentation.

We also need to find a style for our documentation.

People who are familiar with technical writing, but also the learning process are more than welcome to make proposals and to teach "us" what would/could work for this community.

#OmegaT release status update:

https://sourceforge.net/p/omegat/mailman/message/37758739/

Only a very few items left before the release process starts.

#gpl #FreeSoftware

#OmegaT has just published a document that clarifies a number of items regarding:

- its license (#gpl3)
- data collection
- privacy policy
- cookies use on the web site

https://omegat.org/policies

The document is based on what has been requested from us by various organizations that wanted to use OmegaT internally. We hope it's good enough.

@aran I was thinking, are there any default that you'd like #OmegaT to have to make your students' life easier?

We're working on a bunch of new settings for OmegaT 6:
