-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [openstack-dev] [horizon][i18n] Ordering of PO files Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2015 17:28:39 -0600 From: Thai Q Tran <tqtran@us.ibm.com> Reply-To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org> To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev@lists.openstack.org> Hi folks, In the midst of shifting to angular, we are making use of babel for extracting messages. This would then allow us to write a custom extractor for angular templates. Here's the patch that compare PO files: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/189502/ It looks worse than reality, if you compare the django vs babel makemessages, they are nearly identical, only the ordering is different. Which leads me to my next point. If the ordering of the translatable strings are not the same, how does that affect translation (if at all)?
