I just found this JIRA, looks like German 'help' translations are done and in 2.9.2?

        https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-23214  (parent JIRA is: SAK-22962)

Mark was working last week at getting the translations into this site called crowdin (http://collab.sakaiproject.org/pipermail/i18n/2013-September/000645.html), this might be an easier path forward for translations if they can all be loaded up into there then downloaded before the release goes live. I'm not sure how it works though.

Otherwise like you said someone is going to have to do the work to commit all of these individually.

I found a bunch of open jiras but I didn't see any subtask, label or issue that has them all linked. If they could be linked together it would make it easier, to find them? Maybe open issues under translation?
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK/component/11490

French is a language which has more people actively maintaining it and much more coverage (including French Canadian), so it's more likely you'd get some resistance there for alternative translation. With German it seems like there's hardly any tools translated so whatever new is better than nothing.

Hi Cris:

Thanks for your reply and this very encouraging information.

UVa would like to help get the German translations into Sakai, and we could start by adding them here, updating as needed (we are running 2.9.1) for the tools we use here.  Then, contributing them back to Sakai.

We'd like to take you up on your offer to send us the German translations you have.  Also, if there is any open Sakai JIRA that applies to this effort, please let me know and we will update it.

Thanks very much!

Pearson donated a lot of translations in various jira tickets a while
back.  Among the languages donated were German.  Unfortunately each
module had to be individually committed by the maintainer.  And because
Pearson was donating several translations at once, I uploaded them all
as one .tar bundle.  Unfortunately, some of the translations were not
accepted (e.g., French), which has caused the entire process to slow down.

I don't know how to get the German files committed to Sakai quicker, but
if someone is interested, they can email me and I'll try to provide the
files I have.

Our translations were based on 2.9.x, and there are a couple of tools
where we've made substantial modifications, so the translations might
not be a one-to-one match for those tools (mostly gradebook, but some
differences in samigo too).
