In the German Zulip channel, we chatted recently about https://localize.backdropcms.org. The site provides translations of Backdrop core but so far not for contributed projects. While it is possible to add contrib projects to the site, we don't have a good way to add English language source files to their releases. I do that manually for Backdrop core minor releases, but won't be able to do it for more projects and releases.

Questions:

  • How can we make progress regarding the automatic generation and distribution of language files, ideally not only for core but also for contrib projects?
  • What is a good approach?
  • Who wants to and is able to help?
  • Should we spend some money for this infrastructure task?
