-	== ~~Introduction~~ ==	+	== Current issues ==

-	...	+	# '''String files are not branched'''. We must keep all strings from all branches in place for backwards compatibility and we are unable to easily clean up language packs. Some say the branching and merging is too big toast for our translators.
		+	# '''Plural forms'''. We are unable to handle plurals at all. For example, handling [http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/gettext/Plural-forms.html plural forms in gettext] is traditional, well tested and robust way. MDL-12433 by Sam Marshal shows alternative approach based on logical expressions.
		+	# '''Strings can't be modified'''. It is difficult to notify translators that some string was modified (expanded, fixed, changed). The current work around it the policy of adding another string with the same suffixed name (like 'license2'). Would be nice if such strings were tagged/highlighted in the translation UI.
		+	# '''We do not use standard formats'''. Translators can't use specialized tools for translation (PO/gettext editors, community translation portals). Also, I am not aware of any benchmarking showing the performance differences between out native $string[] format compared to, for example, standard .po format.
		+	# '''More syntax checks are required''' so the translators do not brake Moodle functionality (see MDL-12433)

== Goals ==

# Do not reinvent the wheel. Keep "do one thing and do it well" principle. Keep it simple and stupid.
# ...

== Use cases ==

# Developers add new strings to the core
# Translators translate untranslated core strings and publish their work
# Admins want to locally modify the language pack
# Contributors add new string to the contributed code
# Translators translate untranslated contrib strings and publish their work
# ...

	The status bar is one important addition, which was supported by the scenarios interviews, that I actually made. It turned out that when a teacher creates exams/quizzes, it is for many a task that requires rather intense concentration. On the other hand, it also became clear that today's teaching world does not make it very easy for teachers to isolate long periods of concentrating just on quiz/exam creating.		The status bar is one important addition, which was supported by the scenarios interviews, that I actually made. It turned out that when a teacher creates exams/quizzes, it is for many a task that requires rather intense concentration. On the other hand, it also became clear that today's teaching world does not make it very easy for teachers to isolate long periods of concentrating just on quiz/exam creating.

-	Thus, the UI should support the teacher's memory: when a teacher gets interrupted, it should be as easy as possible to continue where they left of. That is, it needs to be visible at a glance what the exam's/quiz's current status is, and showing at least whether the exam is open and if not, when it will be (~~ans~~ possibly, when it will close) is the bare minimum to reach for this. Ideas about what else might be wise to show in the status display, are welcomed.	+	Thus, the UI should support the teacher's memory: when a teacher gets interrupted, it should be as easy as possible to continue where they left off.

-	What is interesting about the OOo-prototype tests is that although the instructions gave the users the idea that they need to create the questions into a category first and then add that category as a random question into an exam, all of them successfully created a random question with the "create random question" button.	+	What is interesting about the OOo-prototype tests is that although the instructions gave the users the idea that they need to create the questions into a category first and then add that category as a random question into an exam, all of them successfully created a random question with the "create random question" button.

-	Because of Moodle's modular nature, there is no single, detailed representation of the full database schema. Instead, the tables for each part of Moodle are defined in a database-neutral XML format, see [[XMLDB]], in each part of ~~moodle~~. Look for files called install.xml in folders called db throughout the code. Alternatively, from Moodle 2.0 onwards, go to Administration -> Development -> XMLDB editor, and use the [Doc] links to see automatically generated documentation built form the comments in the install.xml files.	+	Because of Moodle's modular nature, there is no single, detailed representation of the full database schema.
