It's in the Gallery, try deploying it as you would any other zimlet and report back on whether it works - details on deploying zimlets are in the wiki.

I did actually. But it's not working. Needs some update ...

Well, i looked to the source code and found lot of references to ZCS 8. It should work somehow, but not. Maybe some last time changes in ZCS 8 preventing it to work. Any help ?

Not until you actually deploy it and see if it works or what errors you get. Unfortunately I can't help you with that as I'm not a developer.

I've tried deploying the Google Translator to Zimbra 8, and the 'translate' button isn't showing up on the message toolbar. I've checked both conversatiom & single-message views, so I don't think that's the problem, and it's not giving any error messages that I can see. Any idea why this might be happening?

I think I've found part of the problem - it looks like this line in initializetoolbar() isn't right:

  else if(this.isZimbra8 && !toolbar.getOp("GOOGLE_TRANSLATOR") && (view.indexOf(ZmId.VIEW_CONV) == 0 || view.indexOf(ZmId.VIEW_MSG) == 0)) { 
  

I changed it to

 else if (this.isZimbra8 && !toolbar.getOp("GOOGLE_TRANSLATOR") && (view.indexOf(ZmId.VIEW_CONVLIST) || view.indexOf(ZmId.VIEW_CONV) || view.indexOf(ZmId.VIEW_TRAD))) 
  

which makes the translate button show up properly. Now I'm having problems getting it to connect to googleapis.com, but I think that's a firewall issue on my side.
