Fedora Core 3 Release Notes translation
by Andrew Martynov 27 Apr '05

27 Apr '05

Hello, Sarah and Jeremy! We has discussed in June question about translation of FC3 Release Notes. I understand Red Hat team should be very careful with this document but end user is waiting good translation of whole product. I suppose translation teams could provide good enough "unofficial" translation of Release Notes. I see some points to discuss: - remark of "unofficial" status of translation in title - copyright notice of original document and translation - file format and encoding ( plain text and html in unicode UTF-8 ) Please find attached translation of Release Notes for FC3 test2 as sample. Best regards, Andrew Martynov Russian translation team

ANNOUNCE: XLIFF Tools project
by Asgeir Frimannsson 31 Jan '05

31 Jan '05

Announcing Freedesktop.org's XLIFF Tools Project. ================================================= XLIFF (XML Localisation Interchange File Format) [1] is an open XML standard for exchange of localisable data. XLIFF has many features that other localisation formats (such as Gettext PO) is lacking, including support for binary data formats, workflow support and inclusion of translation suggestions from e.g. TMX [2] based translation memories. The XLIFF Tools project aims to implement support for XLIFF in open source localisation workflows. Specifically, this project aims to: - Develop XLIFF filters for common open source file formats (e.g. Gettext PO, Docbook, .desktop files, Glade/Qt UI dialogs) - Implement and improve XLIFF support in open source localisation tools - Implement tools to support XLIFF-based localisation in open source development processes. The first phase of this project will be focusing on the Gettext PO file format. As a first step, guidelines will be defined on how to represent PO in XLIFF. This guide will be submitted to the XLIFF Technical Committee for review and possible inclusion as the XLIFF 1.1 PO File Representation Guide [3]. The first set of tools being developed are filters to convert between PO and XLIFF, based on the XLIFF PO representation guide: - po2xliff: Convert a PO file to XLIFF - xliff2po: Convert a XLIFF file back to PO - xliffinit: Initialize a XLIFF file for a specific locale - xliffmerge: Merge translated XLIFF file with newly created XLIFF template (similar to msgmerge for PO) For more information and to get involved, visit the project web-site [http://xliff-tools.freedesktop.org] and subscribe to the mailing list [http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xliff-tools] References: [1] http://www.xliff.org/ [2] http://www.lisa.org/tmx/ [3] http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/xliff/200410/msg00009.html cheers, Asgeir Frimannsson <asgeirf(a)redhat.com>

Comps PO errors
by dwayne＠translate.org.za 18 Jan '05

18 Jan '05

Hi, In comps.pot: comps-fc4.xml.in.h:1 to comps-fc4.xml.in.h:31 It seems that the extraction XML->PO got messed up with a large number of bit that shouldn't be translated appearing in the POT file. Eg: #: comps-fc4.xml.in.h:1 msgid "" "</_description> <default>false</default> <uservisible>false</uservisible> " "<grouplist> <groupreq>admin-tools</groupreq> <groupreq>base</groupreq> " "<groupreq>base-x</groupreq> <groupreq>dialup</groupreq> <groupreq>editors</" "groupreq> <groupreq>games</groupreq> <groupreq>graphical- internet</groupreq> " "<groupreq>graphics</groupreq> <groupreq>office</groupreq> " "<groupreq>printing</groupreq> <groupreq>sound-and-video</groupreq> " "<groupreq>text-internet</groupreq> </grouplist> </group> <group> <id>x-" "software-development</id> <_name>X Software Development</_name> " "<_description>These packages allow you to develop applications for the X " "Window System." msgstr "" I assume only _name and _description should be included and none of the others should be present. -- Dwayne Bailey <dwayne(a)translate.org.za> Translate.org.za +27-12-460-1095 (w) +27-83-443-7114 (cell)

Hardware upgrade & FC3?
by Arangel Angov 15 Jan '05

15 Jan '05

I have FC3 installed at the moment on a lucky star KT100 motherboard, with 512SD RAM and AMD Athlon 1.4GHz proccessor. I just got a good deal on a brand new Soltek motherboard, 512 DDR RAM and AMD Athlon 2.4GHz processor. My question is, how will fedora handle this hardware upgrade, first of all will it boot? The HDD an all other other hardware will remain as they are. I just don't want to try it before I ask someone.. don't want to do a new install if not nessecary. Thanks in advance. Arangel

Translation team
by dwayne＠translate.org.za 14 Jan '05

14 Jan '05

Hi, Translate.org.za is about to start translating Fedora into Afrikaans (af) and Northern Sotho (nso). These are both South African languages spoken by about 7 million people respectively. I already have CVS access for the Zulu (zu) translations. Can someone please give me access for af and nso? -- Dwayne Bailey <dwayne(a)translate.org.za> Translate.org.za +27-12-460-1095 (w) +27-83-443-7114 (cell)

Which branch to translate?
by dwayne＠translate.org.za 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

I'm looking at starting some work in Afrikaans (af) and Northern Sotho (nso) for Fedora. I was wondering which branch(es) if any I should be targeting. Or if I should just be working on HEAD. If I target the fc3-branch will that mean that translations will make it into those apps when we see bugfix releases? Or is there some global LINGUAS list that will only compile in a certain official list of languages? -- Dwayne Bailey <dwayne(a)translate.org.za> Translate.org.za +27-12-460-1095 (w) +27-83-443-7114 (cell)

SSH Key - CVS Access Suggestion
by Sherif Abdelgawad 10 Jan '05

10 Jan '05

Sarah/Bernd & Team, I noticed that it is sometimes frustration to lose the SSH Key, and the lack of an automated way to update the key (Due to format PC, bad drive, or whatever reason) So, I want to suggest an enhancement here to the current system (If it is doable). Everyone of us has a PIN we use to Take/Release modules, can we have a link to Update our SSH key and use the same PIN to authenticate the person ? The goal here is to make the adminstration less, avoid the mistakes, and allow the person to update his/her key when needed. What do you think about that? Thanks Sherif
