Proposal: Fedora G11N Steering Committee
by Pravin Satpute
Hi All,
I am sure, most of the people working with Fedora I18N, L10N from 5-6
year must be aware regarding Fedora L10N Steering Committee. [1] As far
as i know this committee was active around 2009 and very effective.
During Fedora G11N activity day discussions, we again felt there is
need for some kind of official committee to drive Fedora Globalization
activities. Fedora is growing faster with number of different domains
and G11N also need to adapt those changes quickly to remain on the track.
For this purpose and in line with [1], we were thinking of Fedora
Globalization steering committee. I have created initial proposal for
it. [2]
Its open for feedback, please feel free to share other active members,
discuss in your respective language groups. This is just initial
proposal and i am sure, we can improve and make it more effective with
active participation.
Regards,
Pravin Satpute

[Followup] Translation deadline around Beta
by Noriko Mizumoto
Hi All
I have looked through devel team schedule closer, and decided to propose
the move of all software translation related events rather than the add
another translation deadline, to minimize the impact to devel and
Rel-Eng teams. However I only have translator's view and not
developer's. If you think this is impossible with some reason, let me
know. Also it is much appreciated any input.
Thanks

Spam problems ==> Even harder to be a contributor for translations...
by Jean-Baptiste
Hi there,
because of spam, contributors need to be in one of the special groups to
edit wiki (often annotated as CLA+1).
Most of the translation contributors aren't in those groups...
Localization team engagement is already difficult : create FAS, create
bugzilla, register at trans, register at trans-LOCALE, introduce
yourself, log in Zanata with FAS, as to be added. It can take days, if
you do it right, because if you start register with zanata, then
subscribe with your email to trans then create fas, then realise your
login is already taken, you'll lose a lot of time...
Do someone have an idea about how to make this easier ?
All the details are here :
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/5398
At the moment, the only one we currently have dedicated to translators
is cvsl10n. But I'm not sure the answer is to have every contributors in
cvsl10n group or in cvsl10n-LOCALE would make it more simply.
