system-config-services commit
by Domingo Becker 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

It seems translators are committing to directory doc/xx/xx.po instead of po/xx.po for the module system-config-services. I guess the right directory is po/, isn't it ? Domingo Becker (es)

Fedora IG repo change
by Paul W. Frields 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

OK, it looks like I've succeeded in moving the Fedora Installation Guide to the new git repo, including F-8 and F-9 branches. Dimitris, can you hook the appropriate Tx/DL metadata to the new locations? http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/docs/install-guide.git Note the Fedora 8 and 9 git branches are called "f8" and "f9". The "master" branch points to what continues to be "devel". I'll be doing the same with Release Notes and its other associated components in the next day or so. -- Paul W.

DL listing vs. TX listing
by Noriko Mizumoto 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

Hi DL and/or TX maintenance teams I gone through the two listings quickly, and found the following difference. If there is obsolete modules listed, please kindly remove? For rest any idea? [The modules listed on DL but not in TX] (which means translators can not submit via TX) - desktop effects - system-config-display - system-config-language - system-switch-java [The modules listed on TX but not in DL] (which means translators unlikely work) - audit-viewer - libvirt - liveusb-creator - mlocate - newt - pam - pam_krb5 - passwd - pkinit-nss - redhat-config-language - revisor - samadhi - sectool - system-config-services - yumex Thanks noriko

system-config-firewall pot file changes
by Thomas Woerner 24 Sep '08

24 Sep '08

Hello, as you may noticed there was a change in the pot file of system-config-firewall. This was a result of using gettext and msgmerge before building the archive for the package with the translation updates. The changes in the source are weeks old, but the pot file was out of sync. I am sorry for this and will rebuild the pot and po handling in the code after F10 completely to prevent out of sync pot and po files again. Thanks, Thomas -- Thomas Woerner Software Engineer Phone: +49-711-96437-310 Red Hat GmbH Fax : +49-711-96437-111 Hauptstaetterstr. 58 Email: Thomas Woerner <twoerner(a)redhat.com> D-70178 Stuttgart Web : http://www.redhat.de/

translate.f.o UI
by Adam Pribyl 24 Sep '08

24 Sep '08

I know from FUDCon presentation that Transifex is evolving and Dimitris is looking for some inputs what we as translators need. At the moment I am using translate.fedoraproject.org more as the F10 translation is in progress and I still have problems with orientation. I understand the translation handling is complicated and transifex already simplifies that a lot, but as a translator, I feel I mostly need only few things out of what is on translate.fedoraproject.org. As a most important I see statistics, which I know are either developen in TX or at least exist as RFE. Statistic gives me overview of what I need to translate. I can hardly crawl thru all modules and repos to gather info what needs to be translated. This is now provided by DL, which is the reason why statistic overview is separated from submit section which is acctually TX. My most common steps in t.f.o are 1. Click on Language 1.1 Click on Czech 1.2 Click on Fedora 10 or various and wait a long time for the page to come 2. Download the .po file which needs to be translated. 3. Translate the file and 4. Click on Submit/Modules 5. Search thru two pages (which is not very comfortable) to find the apropriate module 6. Click on module 7. Authenticate as translator 8. Select branch, .po and submit. What I would prefere is, when I open t.f.o: 1. click on authenticate 2. this will bring up my language page with ALL the modules I can translate (they may be separated in tables by release sets) in format like: module name | statistic | download .po | submit .po Therefore my suggestion would be to add the submit button to page where I also download the module. This would save me steps 1., 4-7. It may be, this is again problem with DL... Having one page would eliminate the need to search where to submit (this would also decrease the load of t.f.o). Statistic can be only percentage and/or numbers Submit button would be either missing or grey for modules that do not allow me to submit translation thru TX. The rest of the pages like "teams" (which seems to me showing the same information as "languages"), "release sets" I do not care much about. Maybe it is important for somebody else. Adam Pribyl

Freeze Break: comps
by Bill Nottingham 24 Sep '08

24 Sep '08

A few new strings were added to the comps module today. This is because the list of support languages was updated for the freeze, but the pot file was not updated at the same time. Almost all the string changes are of the '<language> Support' variety. Sorry for the inconvenience, Bill

Translation Deadline for Fedora 10 moved to 14/10
by Dimitris Glezos 23 Sep '08

23 Sep '08

A quick notice to announce that we've moved the Translation Deadline for Fedora 10 to Tuesday 14/10 (one week earlier than before). This means we have approximately one month to submit our translations for Fedora 10 software. The full schedule lives at its usual place: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/10/Schedule The Translation Deadline is the final date when we can submit translations to be included in Fedora 10. After this date, developers who maintain Fedora packages which end up on the DVD and the FLP is responsible for, should collect those translations and issue an update to their package. Translations can still be submitted after this date, but they may or may not end up in the release. The move took place because it happened to be too close with the Development freeze, which is the last date developers can submit their package update. By having one week period between these two dates, packagers have plenty of time to repackage with all the translations. This decision was taken unanimously by the Fedora L10n Steering Committee (FLSCo). The Fedora Documentation Schedule has remained unchanged. -d -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos(a)jabber.org, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."
