Self-Introduction: Jeroen van Meeuwen
by Jeroen van Meeuwen 30 May '06

30 May '06

Name: Jeroen van Meeuwen City: Zeist, The Netherlands (GMT+1) Profession: ICT Specialist Goals with FDP: -- I'll be translating the documentation to Dutch, and I hope to be able to write documentation myself as well, especially howto's and reference documents. This way, I sincerely hope to contribute to the accessability of Fedora, and Linux in general. Qualifications: -- 2 years at the Utrecht University, NL in Computer Science and Economics 3 years at OGD, Secondment Agency, NL (TNO, Amsterdam Police, APX, EPoX, DHL) Linux Proffesional Institute Certified, Level 1 Microsoft Certified Professional That was the educational and professional part, on to the story of my life. I've been fooling around with Linux ever since RedHat 5.2, but only had serious business requirements with the release of RedHat 9.0. Although I've been reading a lot of manuals, howto's and books, I still love the hardest school: trial and error. With the release of RedHat 9.0, I bought a box to host websites and email, and ever since I got more and more serious. I now colocate several boxes at NL Internet Exchanges and have way too many in my fifteen square meter bedroom :( I hope that my experience and knowledge in Linux, Windows and Networking is not only usefull to others, but can be expanded along the way. BTW: I can juggle ;) -- Jeroen van Meeuwen, LPIC-1, MCP http://www.kanarip.com/ C6B0 7FB4 43E6 CDDA D258 F70B 28DE 9FDA 9342 BF08

Translation QSG updated
by Paul W. Frields 29 May '06

29 May '06

I've updated the Docs Project section in the Translation Quick Start Guide to match current protocols. Could any translators for the existing versions (it, pt, pt_BR) check out the module and update the PO files so I can post the new version on the Web? Thank you! -- Paul W.

Thnaks very much Karsten, I'm really happy to work with you and other team members. I've already started a work named "Ftp Server", it will provide a full guide that will cover a lot of arguments related to ftp servers with some Mysql informations integrated inside trying to help out the user with any possible solution. If someone wants to help on this, just send me a mail or a pm in irc. Thanks, Andrea Veri

Inconsistency in yum-software-management translation
by Hugo Cisneiros 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hau! While helping Rodrigo Menezes to translate and understand the FDP system, we ran into a very strange problem. The potfile for the yum-software-management was completely translated, and is building fine. As we don't have the webtest working, I uploaded a copy to my page: http://www.devin.com.br/eitch/fedora/yum-software-management-pt_BR/ The problem is: everything is fine but the Chapter 7. For some very strange reason that I don't know, some paragraphs aren't translating: http://www.devin.com.br/eitch/fedora/yum-software-management-pt_BR/sn-using… Look at the beggining of chapter 7 and the 7.3 section. The entities are translating fine, but the whole paragraph isn't. It's a mix with English and Portuguese :) I checked the potfile, regenerated it, compared the .xml with the .pot, retranslated, and so on. It didn't work, so I'm asking for help here :) Anyone knows what may be happening? Thanks! -- []'s Eitch http://www.devin.com.br/eitch/ "Talk is cheap. Show me the code." - Linus Torvalds

trans automation (i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status)
by Karsten Wade 29 May '06

29 May '06

Many of you may be aware of the translation tools the Fedora Translation uses, particularly: http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status Because that webapp needs to be on the same machine as the CVS, we cannot interact directly with cvs.fedoraproject.org and our own PO/POT files. For FC5, we tried for having someone manually load PO/POT into their CVS and making it available through that webapp, which didn't quite come together. Currently, the team internal to Red Hat who owns that infrastructure has committed to working with Fedora Infrastructure to get the CVS repository and webapp migrated over to *.fedoraproject.org. I have not seen a timeline for this. Translators, Bob -- make sure I get back with a timeline and other details following the Red Hat Summit next week. Thanks - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Editor * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Fedora Documentation Project http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject Learn.

Name: Andrea Veri City, Country: Udine, Italy GMT+2 Student at final year in a scientific college Fedora Documentation I'll like to write about server applications such as ftp,mail,mysql and so on, describing and illustrating how you can use them, how you can optimize settings and more. I work a lot on Irc stuff, starting to servers arriving to services, clients, and bots and all related things like Guides that can give an hand to newbies. I'll try to provide how many docs I can do regarding this and other applications. I'm also an active translator for the italian language most for Gnome and kde. Historical qualifications I work in the Ubuntu Project, I have made a lot of documentation regarding server-side applications and programs. Right now I'm working on a advocacy document regarding Edubuntu( I'm a member of Edubuntu Doc Team). I worked in other documents regarding irc too, one of them is How to Set Up and Irc Server with working services and more. I started using computer when i was only 6 after some years i discovered the great open source world, i didn't wait more, and now I'm here contributing for a lot of Linux/OpenSource projects like Ubuntu, Debian and Fedora/Red Hat. I know quite well php and html, I made in the past a lot of websites using both of languages. I'm learning C and C++ and in the near future I'll move to python. I love working in this kind of projects, working in a Team, contributing to make Linux bigger, i think i can share my skills helping newbies but also learning from people that have got a great experience.

Latest CVS commit *may* have changed to much
by Bart Couvreur 27 May '06

27 May '06

Hey all, On adding the dutch entities files I may haved added to much files (namely Italian and Portuguese files), for that I would apologize, it wasn't my intention, I don't know what went wrong. I specified the right files on the commit, strange things. Now I checked in the diff and it appears to have just update the xml with some translated strings, so I suppose it's not that much harm done. If someone of those languages could check upon it, to be sure thanks. Again I apologize and hope this won't happen again. Bart

New translation: yum-software-management (pt_BR)
by Hugo Cisneiros 25 May '06

25 May '06

Hi guys, Rodrigo Menezes translated to Brazilian Portuguese and I revised the yum-software-management document. It's now available in DocsProject CVS (under the yum-software-management module) and in Website CVS. Karsten or Paul: can you confirm that the web version in f.r.c is working? I commited the files and tagget them LIVE (before double-checking, my mistake, sorry) as it worked in my local sandbox. I didn't modified /docs/index.php so it's hidden :D I'll wait for approvation first. On a side note, as in translation-quick-start-guide, we need to create an 'en' directory for the document too. Thanks, -- []'s Eitch http://www.devin.com.br/eitch/ "Talk is cheap. Show me the code." - Linus Torvalds
