Please remove Arabic language from the release version
« on: August 03, 2012, 11:32:17 pm »
Hi,
Would you please remove Arabic language from the release version.

Because:
1 - it is incomplete at all, and have wrong translation, look at http://imagebin.org/223217
2 - All Arabic developers use English IDE for all languages.
3 - There is many items not translated, and it will take long time to finish it, even that, we will no use this translation, because we study the programming in the schools/collage in English and no one can understand the developing Arabic words.

Best Regards

Not understand, you can change the language from the Options, but the Arabic language not completed.

For someone it is fun to have Arabic translation, but for fun only, not for needs, no one will use it here in Syria and other country as I know.

So we don't mix the "fun" and "need" ;-)

Lazarus could also be used in education, and some teacher could be interested in completing it. Such cases have happened with other locales.

Switching the default for Arabic locales to English would be enough, no need to _remove_ anything?

True, and agree, make the Default is English is resolve the problem, and leave Arabic to choose by options.

But Is Lazarus team accept to publish uncompleted language in release version?, that is make positive points in quality of product?

As you might know, Lazarus has been released several times with incomplete translations for some languages, yet it's a very wise decision IMO. Would you really want to wait (possibly indefinitely) for the translations to complete before release?

It's that, and others for newcomers that might want to work on it, the hurdle would be insurmountable.

Yes, true, and for Arabic there is who try to maintain the translation (Khalid).

I think making English as Default language is more best idea to solve this problem.
