Hello! How can a person contribute to Sandboxie-plus, and get a supporter certificate. I am aware of the types of contribution(minor and big). I want to make a contribution on translation, should I ask first by email or something or should I make it first and push and suggest the changes, then ask by email or something?
 
Hello and thank you for your interest in contributing to Sandboxie. Please get in contact via E-Mail, as stated in the contributing document.

I assume that David is the only one that handles this.
I see. I have actually tried emailing him 3 months ago, but got no reply. I though that maybe I should have asked here first or maybe make a contribution first, however with this I think he had just missed it then. I will email him again.

Thank you
 
I guess that the document has been added to make people reach out before they try to contribute, so that nobody would waste their time should the contribution be rejected or deemed not enough. Like translating the interface to Klingon, is probably fun and just as much work as other languages, but I guess that it would be deemed not being useful enough.

That said, if you are going to add a translation for a language that is not yet included or going to maintain a language that can be considered abandoned, it is going to be treated as a valuable contribution which is honored in this way.

As you wrote about translation, I'd like to point to a selection of notes and tips. There is an overview document about which translations are available and when they have been updated.
 
I'll send an email again then.

I plan to translate to Indonesian. From the overview document there, I see that the troubleshoot and installer has no translation to Indonesian yet. However, the language.iss(installer) already have an Indonesian part in the code?
