comps change for Fedora 11: removal of specspo?
by Bill Nottingham 14 May '09

14 May '09

A week ago we were dealing with how to make both the DVD images fit on a DVD, and the Live images fit on a CD. We made the decision to remove specspo from the base group: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/comps/comps-f11.xml.in?r1=1.210&r2=1.211 based on the following reasons: 1) The translations in it have not been updated since October of 2007 2) I was unable to ascertain a functional upstream for this package, so there both are no updated translations that could be pulled, nor a way to actually submit updated ones That being said, in retrospect, this should be run past the localization steering committee. Would you prefer obsolete, incomplete, and unfixable (at this time) translations for package summaries and descriptions over no translations? If so, we can put this back and try and find the space elsewhere. Bill

[Bug 500708] New: Can't use Russian(Cyrillic) keyboard layout to type any data
by Red Hat Bugzilla 13 May '09

13 May '09

Please do not reply directly to this email. All additional comments should be made in the comments box of this bug. Summary: Can't use Russian(Cyrillic) keyboard layout to type any data https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500708 Summary: Can't use Russian(Cyrillic) keyboard layout to type any data Product: Fedora Localization Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=579718 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: Other language AssignedTo: dimitris(a)glezos.com ReportedBy: 100megabit(a)mail.ru QAContact: aalam(a)redhat.com CC: fedora-trans-list(a)redhat.com Classification: Fedora Please describe the problem: I am using Linux Fedora 10 and Remote desktop Gnome 2.24.1. When I am connecting to my Linux remote desktop from Windows machine using UltraVNC client(or RealVNC) it's impossible to send Cyrillic letters. Windows uses Windows-1251 charset anf Linux UTF8. When I switch typing into Russian layout nothing is printed. When I switch back to English - everything works fine. Steps to reproduce: 1.Start vino server on linux Fedora 10 (utf8) 2.Connect to server from any VNC client from Windows(UltraVNC or RealVNC). 3.Focus cursor on any place where you can type something from the keyboard. 4.Switch clients layout to RU(Cyrillic, Windows 1251) 5.You can't continue typing because nothing is send to server. 6.Switch back to English layout - everything is ok. Actual results: Cyrillic letters can't be sent from any windows VNC client to vino server. Expected results: I expected the same behaviour as I typed something in English. Does this happen every time? Yes, it happens everytime. So it is impossible to communicate at full strength from Windows machine to my Linux box using vino server. Other information: One way to solve the problem is to use PuTTY+xming, but I prefer vino server to be fixed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Geert Warrink - congratulations and many thanks!
by Ruediger Landmann 13 May '09

13 May '09

Hi all, I just wanted to say a very big, public thank you to a member of the Localisation Project -- Geert Warrink. The Fedora 11 Installation Guide is a massive document (250 pages in its PDF version) and contains 3,700 strings for translation. Over the last three weeks, Geert has single-handedly taken the Dutch translation from around 10% complete to 100% complete! Congratulations Geert for your amazing effort! Cheers Ruediger

Updated translations for gnome-packagekit in F-11 GA?
by Ville-Pekka Vainio 12 May '09

12 May '09

Hi, As gnome-packagekit is the default graphical update tool on the GNOME desktop, would it be possible to get a package with updated translations to Fedora 11 GA version? There were quite a lot of changes during the F-11 cycle, including the new update viewer, and because gpk isn't a Fedora sub-project, it didn't go through the string and translation freezes we have in the Fedora L10n project. It would be nice to have as complete translations as possible in the released version of F-11. This might also be the case for kpackagekit but I haven't taken part in its translation so I don't know about the L10n situation there. -- Ville-Pekka Vainio

Hi, Noriko Mizumoto I'm hoping this e-mail will be on the right place as a reply on my introduction. If it doesn't, please excuse me I just got here and don't know what I'm doing. I want to translate to bosnian language, of course, being from Bosnia. The problem is, I just joined recently and I'm totally confused. Where is bosnian team, am I in it automatically and how do I get inside if I'm not? I tried on l10n wiki pages to find a team but they don't have no information on their "page" so I'm in dark here. I was able to get an e-mail from some guy who, it seems, translates things on bosnian but I sent him an e-mail, like some two days ago and still no reply. If that's bosnian team they're pretty unorganised. I'm currently translating Users Guide to bosnian language and I need to contact bosnian team to see are they doing the same thing or what?!? I just want to help out here to translate something and do my part. As for this mailing list, sorry to say this but, couldn't you make a simple php page with entering comments? Right now my subject is Re: Self-Introduction: Arnes Arnautović and I'm hoping here it'll come to the right place as a reply to my introduction.

Is fedora account system fully supporting localisation ? I mean, I choose es, press Ok, log in and I still see it in English. Probably, it's not using our translations [1]. [1] https://translate.fedoraproject.org/tx/projects/fas/master/#es kind regards Domingo Becker (es)

12 May '09

Hello L10N Infra team As we know, the subject is known issue both in docs team and l10n team. There are some decisions made docs team side to improve this issue [1]. During today's FLP meeting, another idea came up to address this issue from l10n team side that is to break the file in small chunks. Could you kindly assess the feasibility and the scope of this idea? [1]:https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_decisions_for_F12#What_will_release_… Thanks noriko

Self-Introduction: Arnes Arnautović
by Arnes Arnautović 11 May '09

11 May '09

Hi, My name is Arnes Arnautović and I live in Bosnia. I'm a student at Bihać University - IT engineering. I had close encounters with Linux before but it didn't end good. Three weeks ago, I installed Fedora and totally loved it. I think open-source software is very important and because of that I decided to try to help in any way I can, so here I am. I decided to try first with translations and later when I get enough experience to try programming and maybe some artwork. I'm currently learning C++, Java and in my spare time doing some PHP. But don't be fooled, I'm just a beginner. Year ago, I also had some runnings with Blender3D which is also free open-source software. Did some funny stuff - animations etc. I think my biggest flaw is that I'm interested in a lot of stuff and because of that I think I can't be super-good at any sole subject...or good at all. :) My suggestion to, not just l10n project, but whole project in general is to simplify the join procedure a bit. Mostly this - join there, send your informations here, signup there, etc. I think there a more people who would like to contribute in some way but get lost in this digital jungle.

News and media coverage plan for Fedora 11
by Steven Moix 08 May '09

08 May '09

Hello everyone, The release date for Fedora 11 is coming close, so it's time for some coordination between the Ambassadors and the Marketing group! In this mail, I'm going to address different points, so everyone has a clear view of what is going on and how we can effectively split up the tasks. Also any feedback is of course welcome. 1. In the next couple of days, the Documentation team is going to write an official Release Announcement for Fedora 11 in English. 2. As soon as this document exists in a final form, it is going to be translated in a couple of languages, if all goes well German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, Italian and Arabic. This will be coordinated by the Documentation team with the aid of the Translation team. These translated versions should be available a few days before the final release. Now with that being done, we need to coordinate around everything else. Earlier this year, the Marketing group has set up a structure called the News Distribution Network (NDN) [1], which aims to distribute Fedora news to the global media. Some Ambassadors from different languages have joined this effort and will be pushing news to a list of publication [2] they maintain. Besides that, there are a number of ways in which we need the Ambassadors help: 1. Track all the Fedora news you see on the web and add it to our press archive page [3], this will help us judge the depth of coverage so that we can focus our messaging more precisely in the future. 2. At release time, and for a couple of days after that, we need you to follow the comments on news websites. People will probably have questions there, or you will have Fedora Myths to bust [4]. As much as some of us might like to flame people, our official policy is to be as professional and possible while at the same time making our points clear and well understood. Making members of the community angry us will prove unproductive. 3. Blog! You can start right now, get vocal about Fedora! Talk about the upcoming release and what the time table is. Talk about a feature you care about. Talk about how we got to 11, but most importantly, just talk! If you feel like there is anything to add to this list, then please feel free to reply and make sure to cross post to fedora-marketing-list as well. Also, please let everyone know in what capacity you can help so that we can coordinate efforts amongst everyone. I hope that everyone has a better understanding of the process now :) 1: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_news_distribution_network 2: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_press_publications 3: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/PressArchive/F11 4: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraMyths Have a nice day Steven

some issues in Fedora 11
by Domingo Becker 07 May '09

07 May '09

There's a new software update program in Fedora 11, gpk-update-veiwer. Is there any plan to add it to transifex ? System -> Preferences has no submenus as in Fedora 10. Is it something that went wrong with F11 Preview menus ? Anaconda, the version 'Install to hard drive' doesn't let the user choose the language. It starts from a GNOME running session, which has the language selected in the login, but anaconda (install to hard drive) runs in English. At least 60% of my installs starts from a live cd, because it's really fast and easy to get a desktop up and running, ready to use in a production environment. It would be nice that anaconda honours the selected language in the live cd gnome session, or let the user select the language. kind regards Domingo Becker

Re: Fedora-trans-list Digest, Vol 63, Issue 6

----- Original Message ----- Date: Wed, 6 May 2009 00:19:45 +0200 From: Xavi Conde <xavi.conde(a)gmail.com> Subject: Re: Release-note is long and hard for translating > I see translating release notes as a long term useless effort To a degree, you are right. Release notes have decreasing utility with time. But then, so does everything else. The thing that makes the release notes different than, say, the Installation Guide is that it is (or should be) 100% new each release. > I don't see any benefit for the user in knowing that openjdk was > upgraded to XXX, rarely it will urge him to install Fedora. This is the real problem. Every change is important to somebody, otherwise it wouldn't be there. A lot of people are out there waiting for this particular bug to be fixed, and when it is fixed in the upstream, most people aren't going to want to compile it from source. So they wait until a distro has the fixed version. Same with new features in some app or another. Those features are there because somebody needs them. Those somebodys are looking for the feature they need. The problem is that the market is so diverse. We like to highlight "important" features, but they are important only to us. I would argue that the only F11 feature that is interesting to a large fraction of users is the 20 second boot, and even there, many people don't reboot for months at a time, so it is really a non-event. Yes, there are features that are really cool, but each has a pretty small audience. That's why I am suggesting that we list ALL the changes, and pick a very few to highlight. the list would make it easier for people looking for a particular version to see whether it is there. The list, probably a table, would consist of the name of the package, the old and new version numbers, and a link to the upstream notes. None of that would need to be translated. The description of the small number of cool features would need to be translated, but that should reduce the amount that needs to be done to a fraction of what it is today. That still leaves the question of just how much prose do we want to have, and how do we select the important changes. I think we often miss the boat here. The release notes really do need to highlight any case where the user needs to take action as a result of upgrading, especially if that action has to occur before the upgrade. We don't do that very well now, and when we do, it is only for the "important" applications. But important to who? We are pretty careful, for example, of documenting any special actions for MySQL or PostgreSQL database upgrades. These are high profile applications. But I would argue that relatively few people actually use them. The change is important for those who do use them, and you could argue that when they are used, they tend to be used in highly visible situations, but the audience is pretty small. I don't know how we make these calls. I have some thoughts on ways to help, but so far I haven't thought of anything that would get us a large fraction of the way to where I would like us to be. We need a lot of dicsussion between now and F12 to zero in on the right answer, so I am disappointed that there has been little discussion on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs_decisions_for_F12 We really need the discussion. Perhaps some of that will happen at FUDcon. --McD

Remember that this is the *installation* process we're documenting here, so the screenshots need to be taken on a different machine (real or virtual) from the one on which you're performing the installation process. You therefore either need to install Fedora on one machine while controlling the installation process and taking screenshots with a second machine (that is, performing a VNC installation) or install Fedora on a virtual machine (I use Sun VirtualBox for this). Given the complexity of organising this, it was just easier for me to take the screenshots in each language myself. If you look at the test builds available here: http://rlandmann.fedorapeople.org/Installation%20Guide/ you will see that each language has its own set of screenshots (with the exception of a few languages where the installation process itself has not been localised yet -- for example, Latvian -- which use the English screenshots). Additionally, I'm aware that this is a very big book and a very demanding one for translators. I hope that taking care of the screenshots is at least one little thing that I can do to make their lives easier :) Cheers Ruediger
