Converting XML files to PO
by Pawel Sadowski 08 May '06

08 May '06

Hi, I've translated the FC5 relnotes to Polish language, but I've done it directly to the XML files and don't know how to publish it now. How can I convert it to .po files in the correct way? I've tried with xml2po, but it wasn't perfect... Thanks in advance, Pawel Sadowski

Self-Introduction: Pawel Sadowski

Hi, My name is Pawel Sadowski (nickname: McGiwer). I live in Poland, in a small country called Krzyzanowice (I've moved from a small city - Ilza some time ago, but it is still the Ilza's area). I'm 18 and I'm studying in a high school in a language class. In the Fedora Project, I'm an Ambassador in Poland and I'm translating the Release Notes. I'm a moderator at www.fedora.pl - Polish support site and forum. I'm also programming a bit in C++, and always glad to help :) [mcgiwer@redhat ~]$ gpg --fingerprint 45B9C2B2 pub 1024D/45B9C2B2 2006-02-12 Pawel Sadowski (Fedora Project) <mcgiwer(a)fedoraproject.org> Key fingerprint = CC75 1395 6DFA E265 30D0 C330 BC58 F517 45B9 C2B2 uid Pawel Sadowski (Fedora Project) <mcgiwer(a)gmail.com> sub 2048g/C0C072DF 2006-02-12 [expires: 2008-02-12] Regards, Pawel Sadowski

As they determine areas where Plone is lacking, we (I) can work to fix those areas. Basically, those who are qualified to further expand our Plone solution need to learn what is needed from those who are qualified to establish our Documentation needs and specify tools. I suspect that all key members of the Fedora Documentation Project will have something to add. As such, I'm CC-ing fedora-docs-list with this message. http://fpserv.fedoraproject.org/ So far, my favorite guide for getting started with Plone is "The Definitive Guide to Plone": http://plone.org/documentation/manual/definitive-guide -- Patrick "The N-Man" Barnes nman64(a)n-man.com http://www.n-man.com/ LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/nman64 Have I been helpful?

Hi! Just a remark: "pt" is the ISO code for Portuguese (according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639_codes) however, it's sometimes used by Brazilian Portuguese localization efforts. Therefore, couldn't the Brazilian Portuguese Wiki page be migrated to the (probably most correct, from the l10n point-of-view) to: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/pt_BR/DocsProject That leaves room for the European Portuguese team to translate the Wiki into European Portuguese, in a near future.

FC5 release notes errata and looking forward to FC6
by Robert 'Bob' Jensen 06 May '06

06 May '06

I was thinking about pushing out a final release notes errata for FC5, however based on the schedule[1] that was worked out by me and Karsten yesterday I do not think this is feasible. Our first snapshot of the wiki for FC6T1 is set at this time for May 29th 2006 at 23:59 UTC. This gives us less than 4 weeks to clean out the FC5 stuff and start pumping in FC6 content. We have a big task in front of us and lingering in the past will only hurt us in the end. I welcome any input on this. If you think we can/should push one last errata please speak up. With out any major objections this week, on Tuesday May 9th 2006 at 23:59 UTC I would like to start the push for FC6. If you have not yet please take a look at the schedule and provide feedback as needed. We cleaned things up a bit by splitting the release notes from the general documents schedule to avoid confusion.

Fedora Core 6 Release Notes Schedule
by Robert 'Bob' Jensen 02 May '06

02 May '06

It is time to start thinking about the Fedora Core 6 release notes. The first draft of the FC6 schedule has been posted[1]. I think it is time for us to start working on our own release notes schedule[2] that is naturally dependent on that. Following today's FDSCo meeting, I will be starting to draft up a new schedule for FC6 with help from Karsten, if you want any input on this please drop an email to the list or stop in the #Fedora-Docs IRC channel on freenode.net about 2100 UTC today Tuesday, May 2, 2006.
