To participate in the Fedora Project as a translator you need an account.
You can apply for an account at <a href="http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-signup/" target="_top">http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-signup/</a>. You need to
provide a user name (login), an email address, a target language
— most likely your native language — and the public
part of your SSH key.
</p><p>
If you do not have a SSH key yet, you can generate one using the
following steps:
</p><div class="procedure"><ol type="1"><li><p>
Type in a comand line:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">ssh-keygen -t dsa</tt>
</pre><p>
Accept the default location
(<tt class="filename">~/.ssh/id_dsa</tt>) and enter a passphrase.

Do not forget this passphrase as you will need it to access
to the CVS repository.
</p></td></tr></table></div></li><li><p>
Change permissions to your key and <tt class="filename">.ssh</tt>
directory:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">chmod 755 ~/.ssh</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Copy and paste the ssh key in the space provided in order to
complete the account application.
</p></li></ol></div><p>
There are also two lists where you can discuss translation issues.
The first is <i class="firstterm">fedora-trans-list</i>, a general
list to discuss problems that affect all languages. Refer to
<a href="http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list" target="_top">http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list</a>
for more information. The second is the language-specific list,
such as <i class="firstterm">fedora-trans-es</i> for Spanish
translators, to discuss issues that affect only the individual
community of translators.
</p><p>
You may also find it useful to subscribe to
<i class="firstterm">fedora-docs-list</i> to stay informed about
general documentation issues.

<a name="sn_translating_docs"></a>4. Translating documentation</h2></div></div><div></div></div><p>
The Fedora documentation is also stored in a CVS repository under
the directory <tt class="filename">docs/</tt>. The process to download
the documentation is similar to the one used to download
<tt class="filename">.po</tt> files:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">export CVSROOT=:ext:<i class="replaceable"><tt>username</tt></i>@cvs.fedora.redhat.com:/cvs/docs</tt>
<tt class="command">cvs co docs</tt>
</pre><p>
This step downloads all the current documents in the directory. To
download only a single document to translate, list the current
modules in the repository and then check out that module. You
must also check out the <tt class="filename">docs-common</tt> module to
check document validity for building.
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cvs co -c</tt>
<tt class="command">cvs co example-tutorial docs-common</tt>
</pre><p>
The documents are written in DocBook XML format and named using
the specific-language locale, such as
<tt class="filename">example-tutorial-en.xml</tt>. If you plan to
translate directly from the original XML file, you should create
the document for your language:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cp example-tutorial-en.xml example-tutorial-<i class="replaceable"><tt>es</tt></i>.xml</tt>
</pre><p>
Afterwards you can work on the new copy.
</p><p>
You can also convert the XML files into <tt class="filename">.po</tt>
files and work with a <i class="replaceable"><tt>.po</tt></i> editor like
<span><b class="application">KBabel</b></span> or
<span><b class="application">gtranslator</b></span>. To do so, follow these
steps:
</p><div class="procedure"><ol type="1"><li><p>
In a terminal, go to the directory of the document you want to
translate:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cd ~/docs/example-tutorial</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Extract the translatable strings with xml2pot:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">xml2pot example-tutorial-en.xml > <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.po</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Now you can translate the file using the same application used
to translate software:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">kbabel <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.po</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Once you finish, it is necessary to convert the translated
<tt class="filename">.po</tt> file to <tt class="filename">.xml</tt>
file in the target language with <tt class="command">po2xml</tt>:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">po2xml example-tutorial-en.xml <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.po > example-tutorial-<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.xml</tt>
</pre></li></ol></div><p>
The <tt class="command">xml2po</tt> filter does not include entities
in the <tt class="filename">.po</tt> file. You must change the
language of the document. Locate a line like the following near
the top of the document:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="computeroutput"><article id="example-tutorial" lang="en"></tt>
</pre><p>Change the attribute to your language:</p><pre class="screen">
<b class="userinput"><tt><article id="example-tutorial" lang="<i class="replaceable"><tt>es</tt></i>"></tt></b>
</pre><p>
When the translated file is ready, add it to the repository:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cvs add example-tutorial-<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.xml</tt>
<tt class="command">cvs commit -m '<i class="replaceable"><tt>Any comment</tt></i>' example-tutorial-<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.xml</tt>
</pre><p>
You may have to change the <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt> so the
document can be built in HTML and PDF formats.
</p><div class="caution" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;"><table border="0" summary="Caution: Note:"><tr><td rowspan="2" align="center" valign="top" width="25"><img alt="[Caution]" src="./stylesheet-images/caution.png"></td><th align="left">Note:</th></tr><tr><td colspan="2" align="left" valign="top"><p>
Please advise the community through fedora-doc-list and
fedora-trans-<i class="replaceable"><tt>locale</tt></i> that you are
modifying the <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>. Inform the
community that you are working on the translation of this
document before you begin, to avoid conflict between translators
working on the same file.
</p></td></tr></table></div><div class="procedure"><ol type="1"><li><p>
In the text editor of your preference, open the
<tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>.
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">vi Makefile</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Add the locale of the new translation after the other
languages as in the following example:
</p><pre class="screen">
<b class="userinput"><tt>LANGUAGES = en de <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i></tt></b>
</pre></li><li><p>
Commit the <tt class="filename">Makefile</tt>.
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cvs commit -m '<i class="replaceable"><tt>Any comment</tt></i>' Makefile</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Then, you can build the document in your langugage by typing:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">make html-<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i></tt>

The translatable part of a software package is available in one or
more <tt class="filename">po</tt> files. The Fedora Project stores these files in
a CVS repository under the directory
<tt class="filename">translate/</tt>. Once your account has been
approved, download this directory typing the following
instructions in a command line:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">export CVS_RSH=ssh</tt>
<tt class="command">export CVSROOT=:ext:<i class="replaceable"><tt>username</tt></i>@i18.redhat.com:/usr/local/CVS</tt>
<tt class="command">cvs -z9 co translate/</tt>
</pre><p>
These commands download all the modules and
<tt class="filename">.po</tt> files to your machine following the same
hierarchy of the repository. Each directory contains a
<tt class="filename">.pot</tt> file, such as
<tt class="filename">anaconda.pot</tt>, and the
<tt class="filename">.po</tt> files for each language, such as
<tt class="filename">zh_CN.po</tt>, <tt class="filename">de.po</tt>, and so
forth.
</p><p>
You can check the status of the translations at <a href="http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status" target="_top">http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status</a>. Choose your
language in the dropdown menu or check the overall status. Select
a package to view the maintainer and the name of the last
translator of this module. If you want to translate a module,
contact your language-specific list and let your community know
you are working on that module. Afterwards, select
<tt class="literal">take</tt> in the status page. The module is then
assigned to you. At the password prompt, enter the one you
received via e-mail when you applied for your account.
</p><p>
You can now start translating.
</p><div class="procedure"><ol type="1"><li><p>
Go to the directory of the package you have taken.
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cd ~/translate/<i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i></tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Update the files with the following command:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cvs up</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Translate the po file of your language in a po editor such as
<span><b class="application">KBabel</b></span> or
<span><b class="application">gtranslator</b></span>. For example, to open
the <tt class="filename">.po</tt> file for Spanish in
<span><b class="application">KBabel</b></span>, type:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">kbabel es.po</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
When you finish your work, commit your changes back to the
repository:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cvs commit -m 'comments' <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.po</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
As a last step, click the <tt class="literal">release</tt> link on
the status page to release the module so other people can work
on it.
</p></li></ol></div><p>
If you want to proofread your translation as part of the software,
follow these steps:
</p><div class="procedure"><ol type="1"><li><p>
Go to the directory of the package you want to proofread:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cd ~/translate/<i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i></tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Convert the <tt class="filename">.po</tt> file in
<tt class="filename">.mo</tt> file with <tt class="command">msgfmt</tt>:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">msgfmt <i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>.po</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Overwrite the existing <tt class="filename">.mo</tt> file in
<tt class="filename">/usr/share/locale/<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>/LC_MESSAGES/</tt>.
First, back up the existing file:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">cp /usr/share/locale/<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>/LC_MESSAGES/<i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i>.mo <i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i>.mo-backup</tt>
<tt class="command">mv <i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i>.mo /usr/share/locale/<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i>/LC_MESSAGES/</tt>
</pre></li><li><p>
Proofread the package with the translated strings as part of
the application:
</p><pre class="screen">
<tt class="command">LANG=<i class="replaceable"><tt>lang</tt></i> rpm -qi <i class="replaceable"><tt>package_name</tt></i></tt>
</pre></li></ol></div><p>
The application related to the translated package will run with
the translated strings.

Idea / Suggestion
by Arthur Pemberton
Hello to all.
Just two ideas I wanted to put forward for discussion:
1) Setting up of mailing list searching facilities to fedoraproject.org to
better search the list archives. I have seen calls for better search
capabilities of the archives numerous times on the mailing lists for Fedora.
I would suggest setting up a system to archive, search, rate (mod), and
maybe even allow for batch download of archive for offline viewing.
2) Setting up of a system to log and search chatter from the IRC channels
for later use.
That ways new posters have less of a reason to not check up on past posts
before posting their own queries. A page outlining guidelines for creating a
good post would be a nice compliment.
My $.002

Speaking about XHTML, I can provide some assistance to heavily optimize TG to use that
standard (version 1.0 and 1.1) although I am heavily involved in french translation of
fedoraproject.org.

== Notes ==
* The fedoraproject.org transition
We're making fedoraproject.org the primary Fedora site. We now have a
note on fedora.redhat.com. This move is being conducted because of the
success of fedoraproject.org in surpassing fedora.redhat.com as a robust
and up-to-date Fedora resource. The remaining static content from
fedora.redhat.com we want moved to fedoraproject.org in our upcoming CMS
solution.
* CMS Decision
We need to select a CMS solution to use on fedoraproject.org to handle
more static content and documents we want on a real workflow.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/CMS has details covering current
thinking. If we can discuss this on-list and come to agreement on the
direction we want to move, we'll begin setting up for testing.
Zope+Plone seems to be gaining preference. We may also want to include
a gallery add-on until a real solution for art.fedoraproject.org is
ready. If we don't want Plone, we can use Zope 3 instead of Zope 2,
which has performance and future-proof advantages. See the above listed
page for more information; send feedback to the list.
* Gallery
ArthurPemberton will be working on implementing an artwork gallery for
art.fedoraproject.org, using DianaFong's designs as a reference for the
appearance. This will likely involve a lot of work, so volunteers are
welcome to help. Until this is ready, we'd like to come up with a
temporary solution in our CMS. If we select a solid framework for our
CMS, Arthur could work within that to save some work.
* Weekly Report
BobJensen and HrishikeshBallal have agreed to take up writing the
Websites weekly report. They're both very busy, so any other volunteers
are welcome to step up and offer assistance.
* Fedora Journal
RahulSundaram has introduced fedorajournal.org, which is to provide a
resource for Fedora similar to Red Hat Magazine. He hopes to bring this
under the Fedora Project umbrella and coordinate this effort with some
of the other news efforts.
In a bit of an uncharacteristic display, `EvilBob` grew a heart and
wished everyone a happy new year to end our story. Well, Bob, happy new
year to you, too.
Thank you all for your participation and interest. Details for our next
meeting can be found at http://fedoraproject.org/Websites/Meetings -- I
know that many of you couldn't work with the time we had chosen. If we
would like to rotate times (which I think would be a nice idea), let's
quickly discuss what kind of a rotation would work best for everyone.

Jan 17 13:07:05 nman64 <meeting>
Jan 17 13:07:15 nman64 Welcome, everyone, to the first Fedora Websites meeting.
Jan 17 13:07:28 nman64 We'll start off by touching on the small number of items on the agenda:
Jan 17 13:07:31 dfong cool...should I be cc-ing DoubleOTeC?
Jan 17 13:07:38 nman64 http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Schedule
Jan 17 13:07:46 pembo13 dfong: I think yes
Jan 17 13:08:01 nman64 1. Better publicity on the fedoraproject.org transition.
Jan 17 13:08:10 mether pembo13, why dont we get everyone subscribed to the list instead
Jan 17 13:08:35 nman64 This was originally brought up on fedora-list. A few people were left wondering what had happened after the fedora.redhat.com change in early December.
Jan 17 13:08:36 pembo13 mether, DoubleOTeC is subscribed to the list, to the best of my knowledge
Jan 17 13:08:59 nman64 We've since updated fedora.redhat.com to include a note about the change.
Jan 17 13:09:18 * quaid is lurking, too, mether
Jan 17 13:09:19 nman64 For anyone who is wondering, the decision has been made to transition to fedoraproject.org as the main site.
Jan 17 13:09:34 nman64 We've already mostly accomplished that.
Jan 17 13:09:44 pembo13 nman64: out of cruiousity, what promted the move?
Jan 17 13:09:54 tchung nman64, any target date yet?
Jan 17 13:10:06 nman64 The transition is largely due to the outstanding success in bringing new content into the wiki.
Jan 17 13:10:24 nman64 It now serves as a more complete and up-to-date source of information than fedora.redhat.com ever was.
Jan 17 13:10:34 pembo13 ok great
Jan 17 13:10:56 nman64 This is largely an 'as we can' type of transition, so no final target date has been set to say 'it's done.'.
Jan 17 13:11:20 nman64 This will be an ongoing effort for sometime, and is largely depended upon our next item.
Jan 17 13:11:50 nman64 2. Decide on a CMS.
Jan 17 13:12:12 nman64 We want to set up a new CMS on the fedoraproject.org site, to compliment the wiki.
Jan 17 13:12:34 tchung so, it will not replace current wiki?
Jan 17 13:12:36 nman64 We want something that can serve more static content with a more defined workflow.
Jan 17 13:12:40 nman64 No, it won't
Jan 17 13:13:10 nman64 If, in the distant future, the CMS happens to replace most/all content on the wiki, then the wiki might be dropped, but this is not currently the goal.
Jan 17 13:13:16 mether ok one thing that I havent understood
Jan 17 13:13:36 mether what is preventing us from setting a redirect from f.r.c
Jan 17 13:13:41 mether to fedoraproject.org immediately
Jan 17 13:13:57 nman64 We want static content that can be easily frozen for translation, and doesn't change much.
Jan 17 13:14:00 mether and then link back to f.r.c cvs and other stuff where appropriate
Jan 17 13:14:12 mether instead of presenting
Jan 17 13:14:16 nman64 fedora.redhat.com provides the most critical information in a manner that is very easy to keep ahead of.
Jan 17 13:14:16 mether two different web sites
Jan 17 13:14:35 nman64 We want to do a better job of this, and that is part of where the CMS comes in.
Jan 17 13:14:39 mether so there is a obsolute necessity to choose a cms before the move?
Jan 17 13:15:01 nman64 We need to have a way to manage the static content properly on fedoraproject.org before the move can take place.
Jan 17 13:15:12 mether ok
Jan 17 13:15:23 mether so we are translating the web site itself in f.r.c
Jan 17 13:15:28 nman64 We also don't want to completely uproot fedora.redhat.com without having a replacement for it.
Jan 17 13:15:38 nman64 mether: That is the idea we're trying to enable, yes.
Jan 17 13:15:39 mether what static content is being needed specifically?
Jan 17 13:15:46 quaid updating f.r.c sucks
Jan 17 13:15:49 quaid why carry suckage over?
Jan 17 13:16:14 nman64 Enough content to describe what Fedora is, to allow users to access Fedora materials and releases, and to point users to the most valuable resources.
Jan 17 13:16:37 mether besides a mirror list and some cvs stuff whats the hold back here?
Jan 17 13:16:49 quaid we also need to consider that some links on f.r.c have googlejuice and can't be redirected to the top of fp.o so easily
Jan 17 13:17:05 quaid s/some/many/
Jan 17 13:17:16 mether do we have a list of them?
Jan 17 13:17:32 quaid Results 1 - 10 of about 7,630 linking to CI9CpbgWO6UJ:fedora.redhat.com/
Jan 17 13:17:34 mether we already broke many links in f.r.c to my understanding
Jan 17 13:17:40 nman64 There are also certain infrastructure concerns there. We really want something new and better for fedoraproject.org, we don't want to move the infrastructure we currently have.
Jan 17 13:18:04 mether ok. so moving on
Jan 17 13:18:12 mether what are the considerations for the cms systems
Jan 17 13:18:19 mether what options are available in python
Jan 17 13:18:22 nman64 There is a page set up to track various suggestions: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/CMS
Jan 17 13:18:40 nman64 All requested features, suggestions, tips, feedback, etc. should be dumped there.
Jan 17 13:18:45 ignacio|School Let's drop PyLucid. It doesn't look anywhere near ready.
Jan 17 13:18:55 mether looks like zope is the only option there nman64
Jan 17 13:18:57 tchung Is everything except durpal based on python?
Jan 17 13:19:02 mether tchung, yes
Jan 17 13:19:26 mether custom tools are not scalable
Jan 17 13:19:28 nman64 We don't need to open the PHP vs. Python discussion, but Python is by far the preferred solution.
Jan 17 13:19:39 mether either it is zope+plone - 2
Jan 17 13:19:42 mether or zope 3
Jan 17 13:19:50 mether thats the discussion we need to have. right?
Jan 17 13:19:53 pembo13 nman64: I aggree in that choosing a language and sticking to it is the best way
Jan 17 13:19:57 nman64 The only advantage of Zope 2 is Plone.
Jan 17 13:20:15 nman64 If we don't want Plone, we want Zope 3.
Jan 17 13:20:48 tchung I'm sorry, I'm familiar with Plone. What does it do?
Jan 17 13:20:57 nman64 Discussion so far has been leaning in the direction of Zope, since Drupal differs from the technologies we currently use and has certain concerns, and the other Python solutions are just flat insufficient.
Jan 17 13:20:58 tchung sorry I meant "I'm NOT"
Jan 17 13:21:05 nman64 http://www.plone.org/
Jan 17 13:21:09 ignacio|School Alright, must jet. Later.
Jan 17 13:21:14 nman64 It is a complete CMS framework built on Zope.
Jan 17 13:21:32 * ignacio|School has quit ("Next time, meeting more than 30 minutes before class, please...")
Jan 17 13:21:48 mether ok nman64 are you familiar with zope 2+ plone as well as zope 3
Jan 17 13:22:06 mether who is installing + maintaining fedoraproject.org cms stuff
Jan 17 13:22:06 nman64 mether: I am more familiar with Zope 2 and Plone than with Zope 3. ;-)
Jan 17 13:22:07 mether going ahead?
Jan 17 13:22:19 mether who owns fedoraproject.org now?
Jan 17 13:22:31 nman64 We now have control of the fedoraproject.org DNS.
Jan 17 13:22:54 nman64 The box that powers it is still under Seth Vidal's control, but he is working to allow access through the Account System.
Jan 17 13:23:02 EvilBob fp.o is owned by the foundation
Jan 17 13:23:25 nman64 We have a new box that fedoraproject.org is going to be moved to, and we are looking at combining that move and the CMS set up in one process to make things move more smoothly.
Jan 17 13:23:52 mether fedoraproject.org is hosted in which place currently? is it going to move over into RH infrastructure?
Jan 17 13:24:08 nman64 It is currently hosted with Seth's boxes at Duke.
Jan 17 13:24:34 mether and is it going to remain the same? do we have any external backups?
Jan 17 13:24:36 nman64 The hardware will, I believe, remain there, but the Fedora Infrastructure team will have control of it.
Jan 17 13:25:00 nman64 s/will/does/
Jan 17 13:25:27 nman64 The backup solution we use will probably be partially based upon what technology solutions we use.
Jan 17 13:25:43 mether are there plans to have external site backups?
Jan 17 13:25:45 nman64 Generally speaking, the unique components of the assorted Fedora systems are managed in CVS.
Jan 17 13:26:11 nman64 That CVS repository serves as a central point for management and backups.
Jan 17 13:26:23 * cygnus2936 (n=cygnus29(a)83-70-234-222.b-ras1.prp.dublin.eircom.net) has joined #fedora-websites
Jan 17 13:26:27 quaid is that a requirement on the CMS, to operate with CVS?
Jan 17 13:26:31 nman64 In addition, critical components are backed up on a regular basis.
Jan 17 13:26:57 nman64 quaid: No.
Jan 17 13:27:18 nman64 We will manage it in whatever manner we have to.
Jan 17 13:27:23 quaid shouldn't it be?
Jan 17 13:27:38 quaid we would then have two sources of content, the CMS database and CVS
Jan 17 13:27:44 nman64 quaid: That is among the alternate possibilities for our needs.
Jan 17 13:27:50 mether quaid, its desirable i guess but not a mandate I believe
Jan 17 13:27:50 quaid why not just one? the CMS could use the versioning control of the SCM
Jan 17 13:28:11 mether nman64, does plone have any capabilities to do scm stuff?
Jan 17 13:28:27 nman64 Zope has version management abilities.
Jan 17 13:28:42 nman64 Plone inherits those aspects from Zope.
Jan 17 13:28:47 quaid sure, that's part of the definition of a CMS
Jan 17 13:28:50 tchung quaid, found it at http://plone.org/documentation/tutorial/best-practices/source-code-manage...
Jan 17 13:29:28 mether nman64, so who is going to do the actual installation of cms in the fp.org box
Jan 17 13:29:35 nman64 Both Zope and Plone each support extension through 'Products' to add new capabilities or change existing function.s
Jan 17 13:29:42 * StillBob has quit (No route to host)
Jan 17 13:29:50 nman64 mether: Members of the Infrastructure team, likely including myself.
Jan 17 13:30:22 mether nman64, who else is in the infrastructure team
Jan 17 13:30:53 mether nman64, if we are selecting a cms, the familiarity of the cms systems to the infrastructure team is the primary consideration IMO
Jan 17 13:31:00 nman64 Many of the most familiar faces. Elliot Lee, Seth Vidal, Mike McGrath, Luke Macken, and several others.
Jan 17 13:31:18 mether if the infrastructure team clearly favors a particular cms system
Jan 17 13:31:25 mether then the choice is already made there
Jan 17 13:31:59 mether in fact why dont we combine the websites and infrastructure meetings?
Jan 17 13:32:01 nman64 Within Infrastructure's talent pool, quite a few options are available, including Zope 2/3 and Plone, Drupal, generic CVS systems, etc.
Jan 17 13:32:05 tchung it sounds like the decision should be made by them than us.
Jan 17 13:32:13 mether tchung, precisely
Jan 17 13:32:23 pembo13 agreed
Jan 17 13:32:39 nman64 The Infrastructure team is ready to handle whatever is requested, so we get to say 'this has what we need, we want it.'
Jan 17 13:32:44 mether we go on a tangent and tell them to install some stuff they are not familiar with, its not going to help
Jan 17 13:33:01 mether they do the work required. they get to decide what is what
Jan 17 13:33:29 quaid tchung: that tutorial just discusses how to use an SCM when doing development on Plone code
Jan 17 13:33:45 nman64 Elliot and I agreed to give this decision to Websites. The talent is there to handle any of the options discussed so far.
Jan 17 13:33:59 tchung quaid, ok. as I said I'm not familar with Plone.
Jan 17 13:34:24 mether nman64, so how much is the advantage of using plone over plain zope?
Jan 17 13:34:37 mether nman64, is the data stored in databases or plain text
Jan 17 13:34:42 nman64 Plone has more complete CMS capabilities than just Zope does.
Jan 17 13:34:46 mether can you summarise this stuff briefly
Jan 17 13:35:13 nman64 Zope provides a complete virtual filesystem, using assorted content types, that handle all things internal to Zope.
Jan 17 13:35:43 nman64 Effectively, the information is in a database, but that data can be accessed in a manner similar to if it were in plain text.
Jan 17 13:36:10 nman64 To the end-user, there is no difference, of course.
Jan 17 13:36:30 nman64 Plone provides a complete WYSIWYG editor, and a plain HTML editor.
Jan 17 13:36:50 nman64 It is also equipped with a "safe HTML" converter, to avoid certain kinds of abuse.
Jan 17 13:36:55 tchung nman64, yes we need good editor.
Jan 17 13:37:12 mether ok
Jan 17 13:37:14 nman64 You can also use 'External Editor' options, which allow you to use client-side tools.
Jan 17 13:37:25 pembo13 this may or may not be possible right now, but I think it would be a good idea to have a CMS solution that can be converted to an offline download which could be included in the FC isos
Jan 17 13:37:28 mether so if we decide to use zope+ plone now how hard is it to migrate later?
Jan 17 13:37:42 mether to zope 3 or get the raw content out of the system
Jan 17 13:37:47 mether for another cms system
Jan 17 13:37:50 nman64 The content of the pages is raw HTML, and can be extracted easily.
Jan 17 13:38:03 mether so we have a easy opt out?
Jan 17 13:38:09 nman64 Yes.
Jan 17 13:38:13 mether ok
Jan 17 13:38:22 mether how hard is migrating from zope 2 to zope 3
Jan 17 13:38:32 mether any ideas on that
Jan 17 13:38:47 nman64 While I have not yet conducted such a migration, I have been informed that it is very easy.
Jan 17 13:39:09 nman64 If Plone were to become available for Zope 3, it would likely be a simple process to upgrade.
Jan 17 13:39:19 mether ok. cool.
Jan 17 13:39:33 pembo13 sorry, i have to leave for a class in 5 minutes
Jan 17 13:39:45 mether are there are any art gallery modules for zope 2+ plone
Jan 17 13:39:54 mether pembo13, thats fine. we can follow up on list anytime
Jan 17 13:39:57 pembo13 mether, not that I have found as yet
Jan 17 13:39:59 mether pembo13, do read the meeting mins
Jan 17 13:40:04 tchung so far, we are toward zope 2 + plone then later we upgrade to zope 3 when plone is supported.
Jan 17 13:40:06 pembo13 will leave my irc client on
Jan 17 13:40:11 mether pembo13, ok
Jan 17 13:40:32 mether ok what advantages does zope 3 has over zope 2?
Jan 17 13:40:33 nman64 I am not sure what true gallery options are available, but Plone has some nice photo management abilities.
Jan 17 13:40:58 nman64 Zope 3 has a more advanced interface system (for development) and is the newer technology.
Jan 17 13:41:07 pembo13 nman64: art.fedoraproject.org requires a bit more that just a gallery app IMHO, i may be wrong
Jan 17 13:41:15 mether nman64, how much development time has zope 3 over zope 2
Jan 17 13:41:22 nman64 It should be faster and more scalable, but I'm not aware of any distinct advantages that would sway me.
Jan 17 13:41:32 mether pembo13, thats true. I am talking about temporary solutions here
Jan 17 13:41:36 nman64 Zope 3's initial release was in summer '05.
Jan 17 13:41:40 pembo13 mether, just had to clarify
Jan 17 13:42:02 mether nman64, can we stage up zope 2+ plone+ a gallery module now and then see how well it works for a week or so
Jan 17 13:42:07 mether before doing the transition
Jan 17 13:42:31 nman64 We could probably manage that.
Jan 17 13:42:36 mether i want to check this out and use it for a while
Jan 17 13:42:41 mether and then see how well it works
Jan 17 13:42:44 mether before moving over
Jan 17 13:42:52 mether Bob-Laptop, what is the cms that you were using?
Jan 17 13:42:58 mether Bob-Laptop, joomla right?.
Jan 17 13:43:09 mether we better stay away from that, whatever it is ;-)
Jan 17 13:43:22 nman64 I'm really hoping we can get some discussion going on-list and come to a decision on what we want to try for the next meeting, after which we will start setting up for testing.
Jan 17 13:43:35 mether there is no other people
Jan 17 13:43:39 mether involved in the discussion nman64
Jan 17 13:43:42 EvilBob mether: right now yes
Jan 17 13:43:43 nman64 Bob* is experimenting with Zope+Plone for Fedora Unity now.
Jan 17 13:43:51 nman64 I helped him get it set up last night. ;-)
Jan 17 13:43:56 mether we stage it now, check it for a week or two
Jan 17 13:43:56 EvilBob mether: we will be moving to zope+plone
Jan 17 13:44:02 mether and go for it
Jan 17 13:44:16 mether post the meeting mins and rationale now and get started IMO
Jan 17 13:44:47 pembo13 guys, i have to leave now, I will be leaving my irc client on so I can readup when i get back, peace
Jan 17 13:44:58 mether pembo13, we are almost done. good bye
Jan 17 13:45:08 nman64 I'll bring the results of this meeting up for Infrastructure's review.
Jan 17 13:45:14 nman64 Let's move on.
Jan 17 13:45:25 nman64 3. Find a gallery solution
Jan 17 13:45:41 mether pembo13, is working on
Jan 17 13:45:43 nman64 If we can come up with something in our CMS, that would be nice.
Jan 17 13:45:45 tchung looks like we only have one candidate
Jan 17 13:45:57 mether my idea is to set up a gallery module in place
Jan 17 13:46:02 nman64 Indeed.
Jan 17 13:46:05 mether till pembo13 comes up with a alternative
Jan 17 13:46:17 mether we dont want to hang out on this forever
Jan 17 13:46:30 EvilBob sorry I got pulled in to a meeting here so I will have to read the log
Jan 17 13:46:36 nman64 If original development is to be done, we could probably also do that on the Zope framework to integrate the two.
Jan 17 13:46:41 mether I would like to see some project activity and community contest on the artwork for the next release
Jan 17 13:46:44 mether of FC6
Jan 17 13:46:45 tchung Let's set Target Date for CMS decision
Jan 17 13:47:01 mether we didnt have time to do it for FC5 and dfong did the work which turned out very well
Jan 17 13:47:22 mether but we need more active community involvement going forward and a gallery module is key part of this effort
Jan 17 13:47:37 nman64 tchung: Consider it the next meeting. After testing, we can discuss further.
Jan 17 13:47:49 nman64 mether: I agree.
Jan 17 13:48:00 mether tchung, one week of testing. decide on next meet.
Jan 17 13:48:02 tchung nman64, can you update the wiki?
Jan 17 13:48:22 nman64 I'll be doing some full updating to the Websites wiki later today.
Jan 17 13:48:31 mether is there anything else left to talk?, do others have a few more mins to spare?
Jan 17 13:48:31 tchung ok
Jan 17 13:48:47 nman64 That concludes our agenda, so the floor is open.
Jan 17 13:48:52 tchung I'll be around until 12:00 pm PST
Jan 17 13:48:53 mether I would like to discuss a couple of other stuff if you guys have time
Jan 17 13:48:53 EvilBob I just got here, trying to read the buffer
Jan 17 13:48:59 mether Ok
Jan 17 13:49:01 mether one thing that I want somoene in this team to do is write up weekly reports for websites and infrastructure teams
Jan 17 13:49:18 mether We have this effort on place - > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Projects/WeeklyReports
Jan 17 13:49:33 mether and I want regular weekly reports from all the sub projects in Fedora
Jan 17 13:49:34 tchung Well, I nominate nman64 :)
Jan 17 13:50:10 tchung since he's on both team.
Jan 17 13:50:11 nman64 tchung: My plate is full. I'd be happy to act as a backup, but I'd like to see another volunteer step forward on this.
Jan 17 13:50:16 mether what i expect is expanded here
Jan 17 13:50:17 mether https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2006-January/msg00091.html
Jan 17 13:50:39 cygnus2936 i can do it in a bit
Jan 17 13:50:40 nman64 I'll solicit for an Infrastructure volunteer.
Jan 17 13:50:45 cygnus2936 i am in the process of moving
Jan 17 13:50:55 cygnus2936 but once my net is setup, i can help
Jan 17 13:51:25 EvilBob nman64: I can author if you are feeding the info also
Jan 17 13:52:07 nman64 Thanks, guys.
Jan 17 13:52:21 nman64 We'll take that further on-list.
