Transifex has become proprietary

Hi Marcelo, 

The new version of Zanata is a bit faster. After migrating the platform over to OpenShift we found there were some things that slowed it down, and Carlos'
team has reworked a few things to improve the performance. 

One great advantage we have now though is being able to push out updates very fast when necessary, which I think will be a great asset to the Fedora community, and something you will expect. 

Thanks, 

Isaac

Guys, 

We may collect the Transifex all Coordinators, Reviewers and Translators through the API, for example: 
$ curl -i -L --user username:password -X GET https://www.transifex.com/api/2/project/fedora/language/pt_BR/ 

Think this activity will diminish the impact of migration. 
Today we have the teams names entry Zanata different of wiki page ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N_Teams ) and too Transifex, for example, in the case of my team in Zanata this: "pt-br" and in our wiki this "pt_br" and Transifex "pt_BR", I believe our default is wiki, in my opinion. 
The steps for migrations( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N_Move_To_Zanata ) is necessary creating the group "Fedora", from what I understand in of Zanata a group should have the "Fedora", in languages would be the teams and designs belong to a group, I believe that the relationship is this, if I'm wrong please correct me. 
I hope the new version of Zanata (3.4.2) is faster, because for me the test platform is a little slow. 

Thanks,

Hi Dimitris 

I've read your thread posted in Infra. 
Indeed, it is sad to hear but understand your position. 
It was just like yesterday, we moved from elvis to transifex. Since then, you have been supporting us translators 24/7. I thank you so much from my heart, can't say enough. 
I support the move to zanata, but I don't think that our relationship is fading out. 


Robyn, thanks for copying trans at lists. 
I believe that this (trans list) is the place to discuss and decide the way we go as translators. 

Thanks again 

noriko

What are they? 

I haven't spent a lot of time looking up alternatives but I am 
aware of the following: 

http://zanata.org/ developed by Red Hat 

Translatewiki which is apparently what MediaGoblin is considering 

https://issues.mediagoblin. org/ticket/913 

For the record, I support the move away from Transifex and will relay 
the sad news to the projects where I have before advice for it. 

The question is of course moving to what? That's something I cannot 
advice on atm. 

Yeah. There's also some more mentioned in the above mediagoblin ticket. 

Would someone care to look at them all and provide some summary about 
each and how well they might work for our needs? 

Copying the trans list since they probably have some good input about their needs :) (And nothing on this topic in their archives, not sure how much overlap between these two lists.) 

For the translations team's reference - https://lists.fedoraproject. org/pipermail/infrastructure/ 2014-July/014475.html is the original mail Rahul posted on the subject.
