Translating VirtualBox (I18N)

This document describes how users without a strong technical background in software engineering can contribute translations to other languages. The process is very straightforward and based on the easy to use tool Qt Linguist which is available free of charge.

Translation is possible for all language, including languages with non-latin alphabets. The process requires you to perform an initial translation which you then have to keep up to date as VirtualBox evolves. The original language is English which -- together with German -- is handled by InnoTek. The Qt Linguist tool will also assist you in finding where your translation has to be updated for a new release of VirtualBox.
