Is it possible for you to tell an ETA?

I have not worked on that branch at all so I can't really tell. I may implement a wallet consistency check for the new format in the coming weeks so I'll know more then. I know the branch passes the current unit tests but I don't know by how much retro compatibility and GUI integration has progressed.

Are you planning to support compressed public keys when upgrading to Python 3?

That's part of the new wallets, not the Py3 upgrade.

Okay! Thanks. Waiting for it for a long time! Smiley

The work isn't finished. Long story short, the ideal solution is to upgrade the Armory codebase to Python 3, which has much better internationalization/Unicode support. It's far more difficult under Python 2, and prone to weird bugs too. IIRC, we had one translation (Icelandic?) we tried sticking in. We found that it broke a lot of our code and had to abandon it.

The aforementioned Python 3 upgrade is something that must come sooner or later. The question is when exactly we will make the jump. It definitely won't be in time for 0.94. Honestly, I'd be surprised if anything is released before the year's out, but that's just a personal opinion, not official policy. I've been surprised before. Smiley

All right... I'll probably be around when a transition happens Cheesy I bet that there are many users who would be willing to help on translations for several languages...

Thanks. I'm sure we'll get the word out once we're ready to handle translations. Smiley

Sorry, I must have messed up when copy/pasting the link. Should work now.

Thanks, it works now Smiley

Page isn't there anymore. If needed I'd also like to contribute to internationalization.

By chance I discovered this folder in Github today: https://github.com/etotheipi/BitcoinArmory/tree/master/po, containing what looks like code for handling i18n of Armory, along with a single (partly finished) localised/translated file in Icelandic.

Is this finished work? If so, I'd be happy to contribute a Danish localisation of Armory.
