Title: Testing and translations
Post by: wuischke on May 20, 2008, 05:59:35 PM

We are looking for tester using a less common operating system like FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX,...

Please tell us if there are any problems compiling and using the most recent aMule snapshot on your platform, so we can have a look at them. If you use ARM, PowerPC, Sparc or another less common architecture, please give us a short status report, too. Many thanks to Gaznevada (http://forum.amule.org/index.php?action=profile;u=12836) for his work on aMule on IRIX.

One of aMule's biggest strenghts is its language support, we are proud to offer translations to more than 30 languages (http://www.amule.org/translations/current_status.xml). Unfortunately some translations are incomplete and lack maintainers, so if you speak one of the following languages, please consider donating some of your time and knowledge to help us out:

Czech, Greek, Swedish, Danish, Croatian, Arabic, Bulgarian

If you are unsure about the translation procedure, please consult the wiki page (http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Translations). You can direct any questions to me (http://forum.amule.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3842).

I'll personally get in touch with the maintainers of other languages, but if you see that your translation has many missing strings (http://www.amule.org/translations/current_status.xml) please have a look at it. Thanks a lot to anyone contributing to aMule!

I've been using the cvs snapshot in FreeBSD for two weeks full time with no problem at all

~/amule-cvs]$ cat CVSDATE
Mon May 12 07:01:44 CEST 2008

I just noticed a lot of

Invalid Kad tag; type=0x3b name=
Invalid Kad tag; type=0x69 name=
Invalid Kad tag; type=0x3b name=

in the terminal where I started amule, but don't know if it's a kind of debug message or a real problem.

Maybe you could try with a more recent snapshot?

Thank you for your feedback, it is much appreciated.

The Kad messages shouldn't be a problem, although they can indicate issues.

Sorry I can't be of any help on the coding front since I'm not a developer, but I am an avid user of the eDonkey network.  As such, could you kindly tell me when we can expect aMule 2.2.0 to be released?

Soon™. Not in May, but a 2 year delay between releases is a bit much, don't you think?

Hi !
Do you have any idea for a release date for aMule (specially on mac OS X) ?
It's more in 1 month or 1 year ?

Thanks a lot for your really great job !
