Hello all,
Yes, I'm not dead (yet). Just being a bit away. :)
Well... Finally, thanks to the hard work of Domingos Becker, we've got
Transifex 0.9.1
packaged and an instance of it running at
https://translate.stg.fedoraproject.org/ with
some data from the production instance. Yeahh!! Submissions are not
working, but you
already can see what's different from 0.7.x.
Now we enter the last phase of the process, I believe.
I would like to encourage everyone willing to give feedback here to have
a look on what's
been implemented in 0.8.x[1] and 0.9.x[2] versions, so you can
understand some aspects
that will have to change from our current experience with Transifex 0.7.x.
The main major changes are:
* No more Collections. Now you can have releases in projects.
* Project Teams support.
I will not explain how things are working now. I'm assuming you know
enough here. :)
So my suggestion for the new structure based on Transifex 0.9.x is the
following:
Create a main project called 'Fedora' and create all the necessary team
in it.
Outsource the access control of all the other projects (anaconda,
system-config-*,
docs-*, etc..) to the main 'Fedora' project. This way the other projects
will be using
the teams of the main project as a unique and centralized place.
The association of people with the correct team can be done manually.
Everyone
of us can request access to a 'Fedora' project team related to its language.
The releases are going to be mounted under the main 'Fedora' project.
You can have a
idea on how things will work looking at the XFCE[3] instance that even
have some
customizations on the templates.
That's the easiest way I could thought to manage the new workflow
without much pain, if any.
Thoughts?

This is so great !!
Here is a bunch of my already favorite features :
* Weekly notification for maintainers
* Translation Reviews
* Rich Commenting Support
* Project Releases and Removal of Collections
* Lotte Improvements
* Team Sharing
* Project Widgets
I just can't wait to work with it :D
About the staging instance, it seems to work however, it's quite
difficult to understand what's not working because it is a staging
instance (and thus, not full Fedora features instance). I mean, there
are no translations teams, no possibility to login or test a file
submit. Or maybe we can, but I did not found out where.
With regards,
Thomas
