Re: ideas for TQSG optimization
by Dimitrios Typaldos 17 Aug '07

17 Aug '07

For me it sounds an excellent idea. So, other translators can contribute or 'configure' along the way what is best and at anytime around translations. Thanks.

Self-Introduction: Marek Zukal
by Marek Zukal 16 Aug '07

16 Aug '07

Hallo, I've posted here before but I realized I have not introduce myself formally. How rude of me. So here it is. Name: Marek Zukal Location: Brno, Czech Republic Job: 3rd year bachelor student University: Brno University of Technology at the Faculty of Information Technology Me and Fedora Project: I started with Fedora about two years ago when I was looking for operating system for my new AMD64 processor. I had tried some Linux distros before but Fedora totally got me so I've used it ever since. Now I would like to help the project by translating Fedora to my language (Czech). Though my active English is not exactly excellent (to few opportunities to practice it), translating back from English to Czech is a lot easier for me. Especially when it's computer related.

Update on TQSG (Translator Quick Start Guide)
by Noriko Mizumoto 15 Aug '07

15 Aug '07

Hi guys, I could not be up online this time. Thank you so much for sending the log and the summary, I could learn what's going on from there. Those really work for people who missed the meeting or unable to attend. Here is short update on TQSG. Currently I am trying to break up this guide based on the chapter for easy maintenance and update. I hope this approach will also give scalability for future. - Broke up translation-quick-start.xml into four files - Created new translation-qcuik-start.xml - Failed test build :( - Test is continuing........ Once this has been done, everyone is welcome to grab the file to update and/or to add new chapter. I apologize taking so long due to lack of knowledge on build. Thank you for your patient. noriko

Aug 14 20:33:11 glezos really glad we did it! Aug 14 20:34:17 glezos that's it for this Aug 14 20:34:25 glezos (I guess) Aug 14 20:34:26 glezos # TQSG update Aug 14 20:34:27 Rasther Raven46 rdieter_away Renault ricky rordway rsc runa_b Aug 14 20:34:42 glezos runa_b, any news from this? Aug 14 20:35:03 runa_b glezos: noriko is in charge..no idea from me Aug 14 20:35:11 glezos runa_b, oh right, sorry Aug 14 20:35:15 MrTom ! Aug 14 20:35:30 glezos MrTom, go ahead Aug 14 20:35:32 MrTom what is TQSG ?

Aug 14 20:36:43 glezos I think we work the meeting out without the meeting protocol (!'s) marek, go ahead Aug 14 20:36:58 marek ok, I propose that "translation quick start guide" should be add with acro. TQSG, I was looking for it today and was quite confused because of the name. Aug 14 20:37:36 runa_b +1 Aug 14 20:38:07 glezos marek, +1.. can you go ahead and change it wherever you think we should change it? Aug 14 20:38:18 marek glezos: ok Aug 14 20:38:41 glezos It's a wiki, everyone can edit and we're monitoring the pages so no worries Aug 14 20:39:55 glezos So since TQSG is a L10n doc, we could discuss a bit about it Aug 14 20:40:21 glezos do you think it's in good shape? Aug 14 20:40:30 glezos are the changes mentioned at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N/Tasks/TQSG OK? Aug 14 20:40:30 * frozty_sa has quit ("the internet is missing...") Aug 14 20:40:58 marek glezos: I propose to only show the full name linked off the main page, so every new can easily find it Aug 14 20:41:31 glezos there was an idea to have the content on the wiki instead of Docbook. Advantages are easy to manage/update, more contributors possibly (like any wiki page). The disadvantage for this is that translations are harder (no PO files). Aug 14 20:42:17 glezos it's a pretty important doc for our project, and it's a bit outdated. I'm sure translations are even more outdated as well.. Aug 14 20:44:02 glezos any thoughts on this? Aug 14 20:44:20 marek not from my side, I agree that it needs a re-fresh Aug 14 20:44:50 Rasther I guess for update wiki better, but for translator is too bad Aug 14 20:45:16 Raven46 -1 for tqsg on wiki, but +1 for changes on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N/Tasks/TQSG Aug 14 20:45:41 Rasther Raven46: +1 Aug 14 20:46:36 glezos okie Aug 14 20:47:12 glezos I'm +1 for having it in more translations than easily editing it Aug 14 20:47:37 glezos I'll run a msgfmt --statisics and send an email to the list for everyone to update their translations Aug 14 20:47:51 glezos # Organization of our modules Aug 14 20:48:33 glezos we don't have control on where each maintainer hosts their software/doc Aug 14 20:48:54 glezos until transifex is in place (hopefully soonish) we can't do anything about this Aug 14 20:49:49 glezos deployment has been delayed because of summer vacations and security issues.

Aug 14 20:57:09 * wolfy (n=lonewolf@fedora/wolfy) has joined #fedora-meeting Aug 14 20:57:33 glezos I think it would be good to have a wiki page explaining what a module maintainer should do in order to have their resource handled by the FLP Aug 14 20:57:51 glezos One, for example, would be to have it listed on http://translate.fedoraproject.org/module/ with the correct information Aug 14 20:58:50 * G_ (n=nigel@wikipedia/NigelJ) has joined #fedora-meeting Aug 14 20:58:54 glezos anyone interested in writing a couple of guidelines for this? Aug 14 20:59:18 * wolfy (n=lonewolf@fedora/wolfy) has left #fedora-meeting ("Axe me about Ebonics") Aug 14 20:59:24 glezos if we do have them, then we could send an email to fedora-devel-list saying "please take a look at these guidelines and make sure your module follows them" Aug 14 20:59:37 runa_b glezos: i could have volunteered but I am not thorough with the information about the repositories Aug 14 21:00:37 glezos runa_b, we could all help out -- at least I'll do whatever I can. Can you drive this through? Aug 14 21:00:57 runa_b glezos: umm...I can try. what end date are you looking at Aug 14 21:01:16 glezos runa_b, no idea, what do you think?

Having a non-OS feature like transifex a Feature (target) for F8 pushes this idea forward Aug 14 21:05:20 glezos quaid and I drafted a page at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KarstenWade/FeatureTransifex Aug 14 21:06:04 glezos we called it FeatureLocalization but that's a bit too vague as a release-specific feature Aug 14 21:06:37 glezos we could raise awareness for the importance of L10n and the work we've done to get the FLP going as a full-features Project this way Aug 14 21:06:42 vpv +1 for this kind of stuff marked as a feature :) Aug 14 21:06:43 glezos what do you think?

I guess the feature proposal will be discussed in the next RelEng meeting Aug 14 21:08:25 glezos any other thoughts on anything else before we close up? Aug 14 21:08:39 glezos Oh, it's 2 weeks until the string freeze Aug 14 21:08:57 glezos We need to open bug reports for any module that has broken i18n support *before then* Aug 14 21:09:09 Rasther for Test2? Aug 14 21:09:22 glezos Rasther, for the whole F8 release!

One could translate everything as "." (for example) and fire up the application.. The strings that won't be translated will show up 'cause everything else will be dots Aug 14 21:12:31 glezos I did that for flpweb to make sure all strings were marked for translation Aug 14 21:12:42 glezos but I guess that's a pretty big job for all our modules. Aug 14 21:13:08 glezos okey! Aug 14 21:13:13 glezos wrapping up then? Aug 14 21:13:31 glezos someone to send the IRC log to the list and on our page? (please?:) Aug 14 21:14:00 glezos oh, </meeting>

Czech translation team
by Adam Pribyl 14 Aug '07

14 Aug '07

On http://translate.fedoraproject.org/teams/cs there is nobody as coordinator of czech translations, I'd like to take this role, so I finally decided to undergo the join procedure, but from that join it is not clear to me, how can I become the coordinator. Well it is easily possible I missed this information in all those keys, accounts, passwords and pages how something should be done. What is the procedure to achieve this role? Thanks Adam Pribyl
