Hi!

Transifex 1.0 effectively breaks Ukrainian translations. Plural form in  
your system is wrong. For example, bundle (anaconda)

Disk %s contains BIOS RAID metadata, but is not part of any recognized  
BIOS RAID sets. Ignoring disk %s.

Disks %s contain BIOS RAID metadata, but are not part of any recognized  
BIOS RAID sets. Ignoring disks %s.

has the following options in translation (current translation was  
gracefully moved to trash):

one:
few:
many:
other:

I cannot even guess from where these forms were taken?

Exported PO-files have the following wrong form for Ukrainian

Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; plural=(n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : n%10>=2 &&  
n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2)\n

The right form

Plural-Forms: nplurals=3; plural=(n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 : n%10>=2 &&  
n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2);\n

or

Plural-Forms: nplurals=4; plural=n==1 ? 3 : n%10==1 && n%100!=11 ? 0 :  
n%10>=2 && n%10<=4 && (n%100<10 || n%100>=20) ? 1 : 2;\n

Transifex.net interface is sluggish not faster than today's  
translate.fedoraproject.org.

Until these problems will be ironed out, it seems that tx.net move is very  
premature.

Best regards,
Yuri
