I would like opinions within the next 24 hours. Vote for "-e" here, if entities are left "as is". However, if entities are only version numbers, files and possibly trademarks ("Fedora" and "Red Hat Inc."), I could support "-k" as well (as long it does not include name of projects). Regards, Igor

Wiki work needed
by Paul W. Frields 04 Apr '07

04 Apr '07

Can anyone accept the following mission: 11:12:01 < f13> stickster_work: I'm going to be lame and point out a wiki page that needs editing, but without doing it myself or providing content for you :/ 11:12:54 < f13> stickster_work: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/HelpWanted this page doesn't seem to reflect the core/extras merger stuff, nor the wiki changes mether did around organizing Fedora Packagers and such at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers Would someone like to take the task of fixing the HelpWanted page to agree with Rahul's recent edits at PackageMaintainers? The objective is to properly portray the package collection as being unified rather than split into Core and Extras. -- Paul W.

The POT for Release Notes for F7test4 is now available for translators in the Fedora Docs CVS. For instructions, please refer to the Translation Quick Start Guide¹, Chapter 4, "Translating Documentation." Please make sure you apply for cvsdocs access to be able to commit your translations! ** The deadline for PO files is 2359 UTC, April 14th 2007.² ** The module is available here: $ cvs -d :ext:<username>@cvs.fedoraproject.org:/cvs/docs co release-notes-devel Please test your translations for validity by running "make validate-xml-<LANG>" when finished. If you have specific problems with the output, you can get help from the Fedora Documentation Project either on fedora-docs-list(a)redhat.com or on IRC Freenode in channel #fedora-docs. The following PO files have been created so far³: ca cs da de el es fi fr gu hr it ja ml ms nb nl pa pl pt_BR pt ru sr@Latn sr sv ta uk zh_CN zh_TW If you translate another language, you can follow the instructions in the document above to add a new language to the list.

Heading styles
by Jonathan Roberts 03 Apr '07

03 Apr '07

Hi, sorry I'm sending *so* many mails to the list! Possible addition to the style guidelines would be that headings/titles should either be *all* capitalized, i.e. Cool Things To Do With Fedora, or first capital and then all lower case, i.e. Cool things to do with Fedora. Some documents currently have headings which look like "Cool Things To Do with Fedora" - the random use of capitals/lowercase is ugly, imho! Yours, Jon

Question about the translation process of fedora 7 relnotes
by Yuan Yijun 03 Apr '07

03 Apr '07

Hi, I have some question about translation process. Vmlinuz may going to translate it. * What is the CVS url for fedora 7 relnotes? * What group should translator have in the fedora account system? * How to begin translation, I cannot find RELEASE-NOTES on fedora i18n status page, so how can I "TAKE" it? I rememberred for fc6 relnotes it was here: http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status?page=status&branch=HEAD&locale=z… * How to notify the others that I'm translating it? * When will POT file get ready, will there be any email notifications? * Do I need to modify "Makefile" and run "make xxxxx" to generate zh_CN.po as before? Thanks! -- bbbush ^_^

readme-burning-isos - suggested changes
by Development discussions related to Fedora 02 Apr '07

02 Apr '07

Hi, Had a look over the above document on the F7t3 dvd iso, and felt it could use some additions {other than FC6 -> F7} which seems to be handled by some macros. http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/ readme-burning-isos/devel/en_US/README-BURNING-ISOS.xml?root=docs&rev=1.3&view=markup I'm not part of the cvsl10n group so if the cvs tree is still open before translation begins perhaps someone can check and commit ;) {I couldn't find the doc anywhere on the wiki, so assuming it's a cvs thing}.

want to mentor a GSoC project?
by Karsten Wade 02 Apr '07

02 Apr '07

We have several projects that have proposals in the Google Summer of Code. Right now, it looks as if we'll get three projects working this summer. Maybe four. Obviously that's too many for just one person to mentor. So this is your lucky chance! Aside from helping make a project happen, mentors get a GSoC t-shirt, and a chance at other goodies. Last year, I got to attend the Mentors Summit with mentors from all over the world, and we met at the famous Google campus in Mountain View. If you are interested, contact myself and Patrick Barnes. You'll also need to apply to be a mentor for The Fedora Project via: http://code.google.com/soc/mentor_home.html You need to do this right away, so you can help with the proposal selection process. During this process, mentors work with students on their active proposals, to work out which ones are accepted. cheers - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE, 108 Editor ^ Fedora Documentation Project Sr. Developer Relations Mgr. | fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject quaid.108.redhat.com | gpg key: AD0E0C41 ////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
