Cats, good books, AI, and religious walking in the city of Sofia
I joined the team for WordCamp Sofia for another year. This will be my third year in a row as part of the organizing team. The last two years were great, the teams were strong, and I hope we’ll have a good time together again.
Just a few photos from last year to add color to the announcement.
I’ve been blogging every day for two years straight. I never imagined this blog would grow to become such an important part of my daily life. Thank you all for stopping by and supporting me by clicking the like button, posting comments, or just reading. It means a lot to me.
I just wish the celebratory notification said 2 years instead of 730 days.
I blogged about it earlier but I managed to get the iOS apps to 100% translated in Bulgarian. The translation is finally out with the new version of Jetpack iOS. It’s not perfect. Bulgarian uses lots of gendered words and I made a few mistakes, mostly using the incorrect gender. Also, some strings are simply missing. A few words here and there appear in English, despite the app being 100% translated. They are probably hardcoded as English in the app or come from an API call. I noticed the Activity log being like that and the names of the editor blocks.
Overall, I think people who only speak Bulgarian will have very little trouble with the new version. We’ll only have to figure out if the block names in the editor should be translated as well and fix a few gendered words.
I only have a few photos from the WordCamp contributor day that happened today. I joined the polyglots. This photo doesn’t give enough credit to the group that managed to almost fully translate WordPress 6.9 in Bulgarian. I participated by translating or approving hundreds of strings. The group was led by Vladimir Vasilev, who has lots of experience and helped us translate better.
We had free food and free Coca Cola Zero.
This is the Track 1 hall, looking forward to seeing it full of fellow WordPress people.
I didn’t do much advertisement on the blog but didn’t need to – more people got tickets than we hoped for. The team is great and I hope that we’ll have a nice event this weekend. By this time, the things are in motion and the conference should be fine even if most organizers stay late at the speakers dinner and don’t come tomorrow.
