Discussion

We have a new QT4 interface and it needs to be in English. Discuss any issues here.

• Check the English of all strings. Fix it. Have someone else do it again to be sure you didn't mess something up or make something too ambiguous.
• There is no need to change error-output strings, as it is probably best that they remain in their original form so that they can still be found easily. If you find any repeated error-outputs (same text for different events), inform a developer.
• If you find any code being sent to stderr via fprintf(stderr) rather than msg_Error, inform a developer (unless you know how to fix it).

Subversion

subversion command for checking out just the QT4 code: svn checkout svn://svn.videolan.org/vlc/trunk/modules/gui/qt4 QT4Strings

NB

You can also use a nightly build to spot errors
