Well, I'm part of the admins of linuxmao.org, and there isn't anything that I know so far (I might have missed something though).
If I get you right, you prefer to wait for beta release before including translations in order to prevent extra work ?
Aha, yes, you're plain right: translations will be on call to be included way later, when it all gets a promotion to beta level ;) otherwise I and all translators will be playing catch up which is not my preferred game.
However, if you know how to, you can start doing your own (unofficial) translation right now: just add the following line to qtractor.pro file:
TRANSLATIONS += qtractor_fr.ts
build as usual and after that, run:
lupdate -verbose qtractor.pro
you should have a scratch qtractor_fr.ts under current directory. Now's time to start doing your real translation work, with the help of linguist.
When done or enough tired, you can generate the final binary translation file:
lrelease -verbose qtractor.pro
which should be called qtractor_fr.qm. This is the one file that you should move to under /prefix/share/locale to try it out from your environment (LANG=fr) when running /prefix/bin/qtractor of course.
Keep qtractor_fr.ts in a safe place, though. Besides you sure want to keep it handy while refining your translation job cycle (lupdate -> linguist -> lrelease -> test), you'll never know how soon or when I'll be asking for it to be included in an official release ;)
Re: French translation for Qtractor
You may contact linuxmao.org if they have an unofficial translation of their own. Translations are not officially on call, though.
Cheers
