Fedora 11 User Guide

[Ruediger Landmann]

Just a heads-up to everyone that conversion of the Fedora 11 User Guide 
to Docbook XML is now complete and checked into the git repo here: 
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=docs/user-guide.git;a=summary

The wiki version of the document includes the desktop icons for most of 
the applications mentioned in the guide. I haven't included these in the 
XML version due to time constraints. I'm also not sure how much value 
they really add to the guide, and whether other screen shots might be 
more useful instead of (or in addition to) the desktop icons.

You can see a test build of the document here: 
http://rlandmann.fedorapeople.org/User%20Guide/

I've also created a branch in the repo named "f11-tx" that contains a 
folder named "po" to hold translations coming in through Transifex. This 
folder currently holds the user-guide.pot file, created with msgcat from 
the individual Publican .pot files. It also has an empty LINGUAS file.

So, as soon as Matthew gives the say-so, this is ready for translation.

Cheers
Rudi

Excellent news, Rudi.  Thank you for your hard work on getting this
guide out the door.

It looks great.  Thanks for all your help getting this working before  
the F11 release.  I think this is the first time we've actually been  
able to get this out the door in time since... at least F8, if I  
remember correctly.

There was a small typo in the production notes.  It was referring to  
the Install Guide instead of the User Guide, so I made a small changed  
and pushed it to the git repo.

With that done, I think we're go!  Thanks again for all your help.

- Matthew.

Ooops! So you can see where I copied that section from... Actually, 
there was another reference to the IG in the next sentence as well. I've 
fixed it in both the master branch and in the f11-tx Transifex branch 
(and fixed the .po files)

That being the case, could somebody (Karsten?) please set this up in 
Transifex so that translators can see the f11-tx branch? The translators 
over on fedora-trans-list will also need to know that it's there! :)


Cheers

I think the best way to do this is generally by visiting #fedora-l10n
or #transifex on IRC Freenode.  But I'm cc'ing the fedora-trans-list
where surely someone will see it and help us out.... ;-)

Can we get the f11-tx branch added to Transifex for the Installation
Guide?

Done.

No translations in the repo yet.

The branch was set to 'master'. I changed this to 'f11-tx' and the POT
file
is now available in Tx.

I'm presuming this was taken care of; sorry I didn't see the email, I
was travelling/at a conference over the last week.

For the future, be aware that no one in Fedora Docs has been trained
or enabled to setup Transifex.  I actually think fedora-trans-list is
the right place to request, or at least until they tell us a better
method.  There are several folks, such as glezos and Rasther (iirc),
who work Transifex magic.  I also thought Asgeir (in Brisbane with
y'all?) had the keys, but I'm unsure.
