The modules that make up the Reference Application are (mostly) translated via the online tool Transifex. It lives here:
https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/OpenMRS/
If you would like to help translate, you need to create a (free) account on transifex and join the OpenMRS team on Transifex. (If you have trouble doing this, please ask for help on the dev:translation category of OpenMRS Talk.)
If you find a Reference Application module that is not included in the Transifex project, please ask on OpenMRS Talk to have it added.
The translations that you make on Transifex need to be reviewed by an reviewer, and then manually pulled into modules by a developer, so after you have reached a good stopping point with a module's translations, you may want to notify its owner, and ask them to pull them in.
You can be a reviewer!
For this you should meet certain requirements:
- be a native speaker or interpreter of the language
- (one of the following)
- be a known OpenMRS community member (/dev/2 or above, or another Talk badge that shows you have been around)
- have some Transifex recommendations
- submitted 100 new / improved and appropriate translations
If you are interested in the work of a reviewer, but do not meet all conditions or if you can speak an uncommon language, ask if you still qualify on the dev:translation category.
