You might want to change the title of your post to "Free Chinese Localization" and ask the developers to just put their name on a list here. I can't see why all wouldn't want to take advantage of this.

There has been some reluctance in the past as free scripts can end up for sale somewhere in another country. I think this type of scam is getting more difficult though because more of us are watching now and the bad guys get routed out pretty quick.

I think your suggestion is a wonderful way to get exposure for all rubies.

I've edit the title.Thank you for your suggestion!

I connected with Fredo.He suggested me to do with some of his plugins.
We've finished the follow plugins:

1.LibFredo6 3.4
2.RoundCorner 2.1a
3.FredoScale 2.0g

The separate language files are do easier to us.
We're testing them now.We'll send Fredo the .lang files for retesting later.

We hope more plugins can be authorized.

Well, in this case, I think it is not that hard as Rick made a separate language file for his (otherwise) encrypted plugin. You only need to translate that particular language file and this makes it even easier.

I think the same goes with Fredo's plugins.

You can PM to Rick and Fredo if you wish. I don't know if other authors like this idea that's why I mentioned only this two, who have already done things like that.

I'll PM them.Thanks lot!
separate language file is a good way for us.

Hi diweiman,

This is a nice idea - and sometimes even encouraged by ruby scripters. I know Fredo likes his plugins translated into different languages (sigh... I even started to translate some but never finished).

Also, Rick Wilson's "Windowizer" plugin is translated into several languages (true that it's a commercial plugin and they exclusively distribute it via their Smustard site and payment is done via PayPal so that might still be a barrier).

Thanks Gaieus!
We would very gald do that if the scripters authorizd us.
We can only translate the scripts which is not encrypted.Are the most commercial plugins encrypted?Maybe we can find another way to do with this.

Hi guys!
Do you know China has a large number of skethcup users？
I'm one of them.
We are greatly admire the ruby plugins writers who created so many exciting tools!We want to learn and share experience with everybody in the sketchup world.
However,there are many barrier in Chinese "internet",the laguage,the net speed and the government,especially the language.So many sketchup user in China can not read the words in plugins,they even can not understand what the use and usage of some plugins.They desire to contact the outside world.
My friend and I(someone can read and write a little English) want to help the people and introduce the exciting ruby tools to them in China.We want to convert the ruby plugins into Chinese.We know we must get the plugins writers' authorization first.We can't connect every writer and we notice that many writers post their works here.So we post this topic.You can replay here or PM me if you want us to convert your plugins and let 100,000 more people in the world can use your plugin in their own language.We will be grateful for your generosity！

BTW
We want to translate the guides and tutorial too.our translation is totally free for everyone forever.

Thank you for your patience with my poor English!

I'm from China.
I can't visit http://www.twilightrender.com now.
Is there any limit to Chinese visitor?

As you know,there are many obstacle in Chinese internet,the speed,the language and the government control....
We are young guys who full of ardor in design and art.
We hope your understanding of our thirsty on new technology and software in the world.
