String and translation freeze wiki pages
by Dimitris Glezos 13 Aug '07

13 Aug '07

Since the dates in $subject are approaching, I've drafted two wiki pages: 1. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N/Freezes 2. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/StringFreezePolicy/Draft The first one aims in explaining what the freezes are. The second one will (hopefully) become a formal RelEng policy, in order to formalize what should happen if a freeze is to be broken. Feedback welcome. -d -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos(a)jabber.org, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."

FUDCon presentation (today)
by Dimitris Glezos 13 Aug '07

13 Aug '07

Hey all. A reminder that today (actually in half an hour) we are having a L10n session/presentation at Fedora's Virtual FUDCon: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JefSpaleta/VirtualFudCon It's a good opportunity to explain the necessity behind the efforts to make the Fedora Localization Project bigger, better and more organized, moving development to Fedora infrastructure and bridging the gap between translators and developers with something like Transifex. 16:00 UTC, #fudcon. -d -- Dimitris Glezos Jabber ID: glezos(a)jabber.org, GPG: 0xA5A04C3B http://dimitris.glezos.com/ "He who gives up functionality for ease of use loses both and deserves neither."

Re: Notice: Fedora 8 Feature *and String* Freeze - 2 WEEKS LEFT

A reminder that August 28th is also the *string freeze* for Fedora 8. After this date, no new strings can be added or existing ones be modified in packages that are translated by the Fedora Localization Project (eg stuff that Fedora is upstream). For more information on string freezes, please refer to: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N/Freezes#string In short: * Please add/modify any translatable strings in your apps until then. * Make sure everything that should be translated is marked so (eg. gettext'ed). Finally, a big "Thanks!" to all developers and maintainers who have been patiently announcing their string changes in the past, thus helping us having high quality translations in each Fedora release.

ideas for TQSG optimization
by Dimitrios Typaldos 07 Aug '07

07 Aug '07

Hello, I recently decided to compose a list of item that might be useful helping improve/optimize the TQSG. You can read about it in: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DimitriosTypaldos/Ideas I need to say that I am only few months that I am involved in Fedora translations (Greek) and some of the suggested entries might not be of broad interest or having attributed the wrong priority, due to my short experience. Anyway, I hope they make sense. I would be glad to hear your comments. Thanks.

Depends on the build proccess. It is a manual process here, or so it seems. :-) P.S. It seems you replied to me personally by mistake.

String changes in F-7 release notes
by Paul W. Frields 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

We would like to do an update of the fedora-release-notes package in Fedora 7, but it would be best if we could get all the original locales updated for this purpose. I see that Fabian and the "de" locale translators have provided a new translation as well -- great job guys! The other locales that still need fixes are: el es fi pa pt_BR sr uk zh_CN Thanks as always for your efforts. -- Paul W.

Policycoreutils man pages translation to Russian language
by Andrey Markelov 03 Aug '07

03 Aug '07

Hello, I translated all 20 man pages from policycoreutils to Russian language. Before that work I had some experiences with translation (as example translation to Russian RHEL4 doc in A.B.A. Inventa - http://www.rhd.ru/docs/). So, i hope that my translation - ok. Also, translation was checked by my colleague - RHCX. Is it possible to include translated pages in policycoreutils package? Also i open ticket #250741 in bugzilla. ____ Andrey Markelov Plus Communications Phone: +7(495)777-0-111 ext.533

Hello guys! I was looking into i18n.redhat.com translate statistics and noticed that some modules are missing (system-config-printer and virt-manager, for instance). Does anybody know what is happening? Regards, Igor Pires Soares
