Regardless, I'm talking about further on in the thread.

It is online now.
Have a look here: http://www.vbhacks-germany.com

Seriously... you'd think people were trying to steal the food from your mouth
when they are simply extending courtesy by expanding "free" work.

Some even used the terms piracy... thats pretty lame considering this kind
of resistance only ends up producing illegal distribution of hacks.

I don't see the problem with translating hacks to another language especially
if the intent is to help others benefit from them which retains the whole concept
of creating and distributing the code to begin with.

Some people need to lighten up and look beyond the keyboard once in awhile.
While having no problems using GPL code to embed in your scripts but when
someone asks to do something positive as a language translation people act
as though they are trying to steal there work.

Its clear throughout the thread that some could benefit from this.

John, you totally right. It is purely an ego thing, nothing really to waste time with.

I am disappointed from the development here.
I can the refusal here not understand and thus is vB nevertheless no some community...

Does anybody already notice that there is an official german vbulletin-site with support at www.vbulletin-germany.com which even has some small "vb3 hack forum" ?

Translation of hacks and even german support was given on the official vbulletin-site, and it is clear that this is a benefit to sell licenses in germany.

So that new vbhacks-germany.com board is nothing new at all, only a try to do this with more efford and effeciancy - what is wrong with that at all ?

This maybe even gets german people to do new, own hack, release them there, and I am sure then somebody will also translate such things into english and release it here.


So I think it is a good project - Jelsoft supports an official german vbulletin-site which even contains german hacks, so why not do a german hackboard ...


Get it working guys !!

feel free to translate my hacks.. you have good intension so i don't mind, unlike some people around here. just make sure they click install ;)

some people make a stupid two-line hack and they make a big stink about allowing it to be translated.

Thanks for permission, maybe I can link directly to the INSTALL-Button here, I will see ...


Yes, some people somehow seem to think they are a PHP-god but loose the thought that it is vBulletin (!) which gets us all together, so we all should enhance this software in any way and even in any country/language :)


Who else will give permission for translation ? Please tell it here or contact me via PM, thx

Count me in.
