also it would be good to have simplewallet translated to chinese.
It does not lend itself to translating at the moment, as there is no i18n (ie, gettext or similar) used for all the strings it outputs. So that would need to be changed first, if translating simplewallet is wanted. And it'd probably pull all the rest of the core code which can send error messages as well.
Agreed, basically speaking, we need the whole Monero environement translated into chinese, with Monero core, simplewallet, getmonero.org, and further documentation.
So i think we have two options
1.) Hiring a chinese translator to do that all at the moment speaking and every 3 months what gets added.
2.) Organize a chinese community and hope they are doing this as long as Monero exists.
Both have their downsides, but in my personal limited opinion, number 1 would be feasible and instant.
What do you guys think?
Let me know your thoughts Ladies and Gentleman!
I pledge 50 XMR for the chinese translation as well, would make 675 XMR so far. Is there anybody willing to organize this?
As soon as someone comes forward willing to translate we can find a trusted escrow and talk with flyffly about how the new language will be integrated in the current website, also it would be good to have simplewallet translated to chinese.
i would hit that. my chinese is quite good.
Sounds good
Can you give us an example of your translation, or has anybody here read a translated script from aminorex?

awesome, I would send the moneroj directly to you.
Let´s use a transparent escrow, i think this is in the interest for all of us

What do you think about translating getmonero.org into traditional chinese?
We already have 675XMR pleged, so this would be an excellent oportunity to approach the chinese market with our beloved XMR
I'll get this going on the getmonero thread, unless someone else gets it going. I guess we'll depend on our escrow in chief, unless someone trusts me to escrow. We'll also need someone to verify the chinese translation is good. Who can do that? I can escrow, but all I'll do is look at it and go "that looks like Chinese to me!" and then send the money. So.....
I made a video series on using virtual box, though I need to make new ones. And you can modify the memory settings after you compile.
