International Translation Bounties for Aeon Community Translations

Aeon has a vast library of information and how-to’s for it. Currently we do not have any translations set up besides the GUI and CLI functions within the functioning software in which we have been graciously provided by the Monero community. In addition to these features, community members have spoken out that we need translations in order to help adoption of the project. Not everyone speaks English as a main or second language and having these translations would help increase that adoption and use case of Aeon. We are looking for qualified native speakers of any non-English language in which English is their second language. We have earmarked 5000 worth of AEON from the Development fund to pay these bounties throughout 2019. For these bounties we are looking for translations of the following current items first and foremost:

  • Aeon CLI Github repository Readme.md and Contributing.md forms

  • Aeon GUI Github repository Readme.md

  • Aeon.cash main website

  • Aeon How-To’s for operating Aeon software interfaces

  • Aeon How-To’s for building Aeon on all platforms

In addition to these core attributes, we are looking for community members to set up FREE Medium or like blog platforms to translate Medium State of Aeon posts to native languages. We believe that this will allow readers in additional languages to keep up-to-date with the latest happenings in their own languages as well as keep a log for future purposes. This will increase community engagement within Aeon and possibly help attract additional talent to the Aeon community.

We are currently seeking translations of these following languages, but we will accept translations to additional languages if you can provide instances of community involvement with those language platforms. We want everyone to be able to use and understand Aeon.

  • French
  • German
  • Russian
  • Chinese
  • Indonesian
  • Spanish
  • Polish, Serbian, Croatian
  • Malaysian
  • Arabic
  • Additional languages outside these are recommended. Please contact us if you are interested in translating outside these core languages.

Responsibilities of community members performing translations:

  • Members must provide at minimum one translation of core repository material such as Aeon CLI and GUI readme.md and contributing.md files, or Aeon.cash main website for compensation.
  • Members can provide additional translations as desired and will be compensated for these translations on a per-submittal basis.
  • Completed translations will be reviewed by our project manager or translations coordinator (if one is elected for the task). Translators must also submit final work to our community repository on GitHub in a repository set up for this process. Anyone can create their own repositories on the community GitHub. Members can also create their own Medium or other platform to post their own content and that will be linked through our Aeon Community GitHub repository or possibly the main Aeonix repository dependent on material if decided. In order to be compensated, users must submit translated work for core material to the Aeon Community GitHub repository. If community members have questions on how to complete this process of submittal, many members are able to help on our community Discord or IRC channels.
  • Completed translations of core-material must be kept up to date if updates are made to these documents. Example: CLI readme is updated to add additional lines for new compiling instructions or new additions, user must update their translations to reflect these new changes or additions. This is so new users or current users can be kept up to date with this information.
  • Members doing translation may be called upon for additional translations in the future and must be able to complete these translations within a timely manner and would be compensated for them.
