Question about the translation process of fedora 7 relnotes

[Yuan Yijun]

Hi,

I have some question about translation process. Vmlinuz may going to
translate it.


* What is the CVS url for fedora 7 relnotes?

* What group should translator have in the fedora account system?

* How to begin translation, I cannot find RELEASE-NOTES on fedora i18n
status page, so how can I "TAKE" it? I rememberred for fc6 relnotes it
was here:
http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status?page=status&branch=HEAD&am...

* How to notify the others that I'm translating it?

* When will POT file get ready, will there be any email notifications?

* Do I need to modify "Makefile" and run "make xxxxx" to generate
zh_CN.po as before?


Thanks!

Release notes are part of docs, so it is available in cvs with
following information:
@cvs.fedoraproject.org:/cvs/docs

PATH=release-notes/devel

it is removed from i18n.redhat.com as it is part of documentation
so you need to follow list:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2007-March/msg00082.html

list

Hi,

谢谢你帮我问了这些问题，现在我对翻译的流程应该比较清楚了。

太不好意思了:)

Yes, the Docs no longer appear in the i18n.redhat.com system -- Fedora
Project is working on a new system for providing PO through a WUI.

>  * How to notify the others that I'm translating it? 
Through CVS there's no such function.  However, we have yet to encounter
conflicts for this reason in CVS, maybe because not too many people are
doing docs translations.  But if you commit your changes often, the
chances of this happening are minimized or eliminated.

Yes, we will notify fedora-trans-list when the POT is ready -- should be
later today.

OTHERS already contains "zh_CN" so you should be ready to go.  Just wait
for the "POT ready" email coming soon.
