Summary:	
---------

1. F7 release notes status

   * [stickster] Dumped an update for the postats (and a new, less
     locally-dependent script) on the wiki last night: see
     http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Translation/Statistics

   * The deadline is 2359 UTC on May 02 2007, so about 3.5 days left.

2. Discussion of completeness required for translations (part 1)

   * 90% of translation is customary percentage to be considered
     for inclusion in final release.

   * New RPM with additional translations can be made for later spins
     and updates.

3. Guide schedule and status

   * Docs team a little behind on guides due to new features in the distro.

   * [stickster] Wrote email during meeting,
     https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2007-April/msg00199.html,
     on great way to look at current state of docs by using yelp, the
     GNOME help browser.

   * [stickster] Continue work on Fedora Implementation Guide (FIG).

   * [jmbuser] Continue update of Fedora User Guide (FUG).

   * [JonRob) Get status on System Management Guide (SMG) from Rahul (mether).

   * [glezos] Do an analysis of PO files completed.

4. Discussion of completeness required for translations (part 2)

   * [all] If a translation is below 90%, but translator had to leave out
     a section and would like a manual review, we should do so as a team.

   * [glezos] Sent email during meeting on this topic to list,
     see https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-docs-list/2007-April/msg00201.html.

5. F7T4 "release notes"
