Okay, done. I could make zipangu a trusted user as well, but he hasn't been back in a while...

yes, same for me.

It should be fixed :)

But in the meantime, you can ask me, and I will create a list :)

For instance, for zmoo, I have created a list of Russian sentences that don't have any translation into French.
http://tatoeba.org/eng/sentences_lists/edit/40

If you want something similar for Dutch or any other language, just ask :)

Yep it has already been requested (first by ourselves :p) we plan to have a panel to have advanced search option, to be able to search not only by requesting words, but by more option (not translated in X , translated by user Y etc... )

for the moment we're planning to migrate to an other server to make the website faster and more reactiv, but as a lot of people seems to want it, we will try to implemenent it ASAP

You may have more chance asking this in other more populated forums if you want an answer ^^ We still don't have any native Japanese speakers hanging around here =(

yes for me too :(

I'm re-posting with my "real" account... I used by mistake my "test" account (tranglich) earlier.

So for the explaination, we were updating Tatoeba in order to integrate some bugfixes, but we hadn't really tested everything properly =/

I was thinking, perhaps some of you guys (not only contour and Pharamp, but anyone reading this) would be interested in being our beta testers, or as I prefer to call it "bug hunters".

Send me a PM if you are interested :)

Also (same item) should be "looking for people" not "looking forward people".

ok thanks, that the correction will appear on next launchpad update

Sorry I forgot about that. I modified the extraction script so that it the full path is displayed in "Location" in Launchpad.

The [M] and [F] flags are only required in English sentences used in WWWJDIC. Ideally that information would be stored separately from the main sentence text and added as required later.

The {stuff}{1} like {this}{2} is an old mark-up system that is not currently in use. I would not add it anywhere it isn't already used, and Jim doesn't want it near the sentences he uses with WWWJDIC. ;-)

I actually have no idea if every speech is in the public domain. But if you are only adding one or two sentences from a speech, then you should be fine. If you are adding the whole speech, then do make sure that it is in the public domain.

I would still encourage you to translate what is already here though. It wouldn't be very productive for you to add manually, one by one, sentences from a long text :P
Because yes, we will someday have a feature for mass adding.

As for having a special section for long text, we surely will have that too, someday. But in a much much more distant future than the mass adding. There is still a lot to do with sentences, before we move on to long texts.

One more question (sorry), is there any plans in the future for mass adding of sentences to tatoeba?
[for example importing sentences to tatoeba from a txt file of for e.g. sentences separated by white characters]

In the absolute it's not a problem for me, but maybe then we can put them in a special section, reserved for long text, this way you will not need to worry about the current sentence length limitation and moreover this way people who're looking for long text, will find them easily
what do you think?
and Trang ?

and is there a limit on the number of characters a sentence on tatoeba can contain?

I think Zipangu has developped some mantra for this :P
anyway, congrat to have reached 2,000+ sentences in arabic it's already amazing :)
