Some changes in master
by Paul W. Frields 13 Oct '10

13 Oct '10

With the advice and assistance of Sijis and Mo, I committed some changes in to the 'master' branch, specifically to the about-fedora page. Here's a summary of what I did: * Simplified the language somewhat. What was there was a completely accurate copy of our wiki, but given the general website is going to be read by lots of people not familiar with our project, I tried to make the text very approachable. * At first I removed the four foundations because it seemed like overkill to me -- but Mo helpfully reminded me that these are landing spots for the index.html page's links to those foundations. So again, I simplified the text somewhat to make it easier to understand. * I provided template markup for everything, but I hope anyone will feel free to double-check my work! :-) What I *didn't* do is to create new POT and merge the existing PO files. I didn't do this because before we make the translators go any further, I wanted the Websites team to be in agreement with these text changes. (If they don't meet with approval, it's easy to revert them!) So what has to happen is: * Approval of changes * Notify L10n we're going to change POT and make sure no one reacts really negatively * Build POT, merge PO and push Paul

Problems with the new website layout and Finnish translations
by Ville-Pekka Vainio 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi again, I managed to finish and commit Finnish translations to the master branch of the website. It seems like the new layout doesn't handle long words and paragraphs too well, see <http://stg.fedoraproject.org/fi/>. The last link in the link bar flows to the next line and almost gets hidden. 'Ensin.', which means 'First.', also flows to the next line. In the Design Suite screen the More information text ends up on top of the number boxes. I see similar problems in <http://stg.fedoraproject.org/fi/features/#overview> as well. -- Ville-Pekka Vainio

Creating a new ticket is impossible because registering a new user is impossible
by Geoffrey 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi, On the bottom of this page: https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/ it says: Problems? * ... * Create a new ticket Which links to this page: https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/newticket Where I get: TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation Which is probably because I am not logged in. But I cannot register as a new user, so I cannot log in, so I cannot create a new issue. After some digging around, I only found this e-mail to contact, could you please forward this to the correct person? PS, here are the issues/tickets I want to create: - [Bug] On Windows Vista the liveusb-creator does not work if you do not "run it as administrator" and there is no indication that you should "run it as administrator" - [Improvement] Please provide a tar.gz with an u+x file (for example an sh script) that runs on any linux (including specifically Ubuntu Linux), not just the source because building from source hardly ever works on a random distro (pyton dependencies and whatnot missing) - [Wish] Provide a .deb for Ubuntu Linux to facilitate people moving from Ubuntu to Fedora -- With kind regards / Met vriendelijke groeten, Geoffrey De Smet

'100%' is causing problems with translation
by Ville-Pekka Vainio 11 Oct '10

11 Oct '10

Hi websites people, I've been translating the new website and I noticed the phrase '100%' is used in a few places. This seems to cause problems with translation. If I leave it out completely, 'msgfmt -cvo /dev/null file.po' says "number of format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' does not match". If I use '100%%' in the translation, I get the same error. If I just use '100%', msgfmt says "'msgstr' is not a valid Python format string, unlike 'msgid'. Reason: In the directive number 1, the character 'v' is not a valid conversion specifier.", where the character is whatever happens to be after '100%'. I think '100%' should be replaced with an English word which wouldn't cause these problems. -- Ville-Pekka Vainio

Idea for Fedora
by Angel Dimitrov 09 Oct '10

09 Oct '10

Hello, I can make some 3d graphics for your Fedora homepage. Look at this example. I made it in my break time. If I spend more time working on such project, I will make it even better. The Fedora home page can be improved significantly, definitely. Best regards, Angel

Problems with the Hebrew translation of spins.fedoraproject.org
by Elad 08 Oct '10

08 Oct '10

Hello all. While testing the Hebrew translation of spins.fedoraproject.org I've encountered many problems, most of them are related to the fact that Hebrew is an RTL language (written from right to left). 1. when selecting he (language code for Hebrew) in the language selection menu and clicking OK, i get this page: http://spins.fedoraproject.org/?lang=he and it shows the English version of the site. the only way for a user to see the Hebrew version of the site is manually changing the URL to: http://spins.fedoraproject.org/he/ 2. the slogans of the spins showed in the main page appear untranslated, but if you click on a spin (eg. design) you can see the slogan translated. 3. the big download button in the right side of the screen ("Download Now!") is untranslated. but the small download buttons, in the download tab of each spins, which has the same text, are translated. 4. the Fedora Spins logo appears on the navigation menu. i think the menu layout should be the same for Hebrew and English (move the logo back to it's original place, don't move the menu), but it will look nicer if those small icons near the navigation links would be on the left side of the link, and not the right side. please fix those problems. thanks. -- >Elad
