Hi,

We have entered the string freeze for GCompris 26.0! This is also the
first official release of our administration tool for teachers:
gcompris-teachers.
Please get your translations ready before January 31st 12:00 CET.
We plan to make the packages on February 2nd, and do the release on
February 4th.

The complete changelog is available in
https://invent.kde.org/education/gcompris/-/issues/52.

Regarding the strings:
* There are around 65 new strings and 70 fuzzy ones compared to the
previous release in the application
(https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kf6/po/gcompris_qt.po/).
* The administration tool contains around 420 strings
(https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kf6/po/gcompris_teachers_qt.po/).
* Its documentation contains 128 strings
(https://l10n.kde.org/stats/doc/trunk-kf6/package/gcompris-teachers-handbook/).

You can find the files to translate at:
https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kf6/po/#gcompris (please double
check in https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/trunk-kf6/po/#gcompris if the
files are not more complete/recent).
Apart from the main file
(https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kf6/po/gcompris_qt.po/), it
would be great to have translations for all the files if they are not
already translated in your language in
https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/stable-kf6/package/gcompris/

If you have more time, please check the translation of the website:
https://l10n.kde.org/stats/gui/trunk-kf5/po/gcompris-net.po/ (the news
for this version has been prepared so translators can translate all
the files at once).

To provide a good experience for users, we will only ship languages
with translation percentage bigger than 70% in gcompris_qt.po for
GCompris, and the same with gcompris_teachers.po for
GCompris-teachers.

Also, if you would like to record missing voices for your language,
now is a good time to do it (https://gcompris.net/voicestats/ for the
next release status).

Thank you all for helping to provide GCompris in multiple languages
all around the world!

If you want us to commit the files for your language, just send us the

lists.

Cheers,

Timothée & Johnny
