So of course right after I sent this email, more feedback was given/changes requested. Please wait another 24 hours before starting on this.
Hi there,
As you are probably already aware, Wesnoth 1.18.0 is slated for release on March 17 (exact time TBD) per the 1.17 Development Roadmap:
There is going to be a proper translatable release announcement on Wesnoth.org just like on previous occasions. The announcement's translation catalogues are already up at the wesnoth/website GitHub repository for you to download:
In order to submit your announcement translations, make sure to send them to me at this email address. You *can* probably send them to Ivanovic instead, but then there's no guarantee that they will be merged in time before the announcement.
Also, given this is more of a marketing thing and not as important as the translations for the game itself don't feel too pressured to get it done before/during March 17.
As for the technical aspect of translating the announcement, generally speaking there's not much you need to be aware of other than:
1. All strings are HTML
2. The HTML tags and their attributes in the msgids should be left alone, except for any applicable alt=, aria-label=, or title= attributes.
If you have any specific technical questions, your best options are either asking in #development on Discord/#wesnoth-dev on Libera, or sending a follow-up to this email.
Thanks for your contributions to Wesnoth!
