Meeting time
by Dimitris Glezos 18 Mar '08

18 Mar '08

Yup, the dreadful discussion came up again. Some folks had to stay up late and some to wake up at 5am to make the meeting, so we need to try and fix this. The following is a chart with 5 timezones listed: Europe, India, Australia, Eastern USA (and UTC). http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meetingtime.html?month=2&day=5&year=2… It seems 11UTC might fit the bill. That's: UTC: 11:00 Paris: 12:00 Noon Patras, Greece: 13:00 Pune, India: 16:30 Brisbane, AU: 21:00 Brazil: 08:00 Also 12UTC might fix things up for Brazil, but it's pushing the envelope for Australia a bit. -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."

Steering Committee formation
by Paul W. Frields 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Most if not all of the subprojects in Fedora follow the guidelines established by the Board for defining projects, found here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DefiningProjects I'm not a big fan of organization just for organization's sake, if it stops people from being able to get things done. But steering committees in subprojects are *good* for a number of reasons, including identifying tasks, getting assignments made, and tracking progress. A steering committee serves as a central communication point between all the members of a subproject, other subprojects, and the Fedora Project Board. It also provides a unified voice and opportunities for solid decision making, empowering community leaders the contributors themselves identify and elect. I encourage the L10N (Translation) Project to start talking about an L10N Steering Committee. I also encourage interested community members to step up and serve as committee members to better organize and communicate about all the great work that's being done in L10N. Thanks to all contributors here for your hard work and incredible progress in making Fedora available to users worldwide! -- Paul W.

About ubuntu s-c-printer
by Thomas Canniot 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

Hello everybody We (the French translation team members) noticed that the s-c-printer.po file has been modified by a @debian.org people. Then my question is : was the s-c-printer translation taken from somewhere else than translate.fedoraproject.org ? If yes, why and who is upstream then ? Because I can't see any activity from Josselin Mouette <joss(a)debian.org> in https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/module/system-config-printer?bra… In https://translate.fedoraproject.org/POT/system-config-printer.trunk/system-… he commited his translation two days ago. Thanks for helping me understand something. Thomas

FOSDEM 2008: L10N meeting (Sunday)
by Bart Couvreur 29 Feb '08

29 Feb '08

FOSDEM 2008: L10N meeting (Sunday) ================================== We meet up with some off the people who where around at Fosdem to discuss in-person how we were doing as a project, and how we could enable ourselves to do things much better. Part of this group had an initial meeting with Max Spevack last year at the same event and that kicked off all the stuff that's been going on in L10N recently. If you have any questions what so ever, don't hesitate to ask on-list. Attendees: ---------- * Fabian Affolter (de): german maintainer * Michael (sk): new to the L10N project * Marek Mahut (sk): slovak maintainer * Thomas Canniot (fr): french maintainer * Josselin (fr): interested in translation memories * Bart Couvreur (nl): dutch maintainer * Dimitris Glezos (el): greek maintainer, toolchain ninja * Friedel Wolff: writer of pootle (web-based translation tool) Difficulties in the project: ---------------------------- * Same language can be written in a slightly different way depeneding on the country (de_DE vs de_CH) * Translators need to feel involved * Loss of motivation because the system is to hard to join / use * People need to know English, which actually doesn't have to be the case (proof-reading is also part of translation) * Communication is key factor to succes Successes in the project: ------------------------ * Creating maintainership role has been a serious boost for the different teams * Centralization of the tools is a huge step in the right direction * Easier for a translator to use: no need to know any CLI tools to get to work, but allowing people who do like CLI to continue their work * Increased visibility in the Fedora project * Metrics showing a serious increase in the project of members, commits, mails, ... Tools (evaluation + todo): ------ * Damned Lies (stats): 1. (Eval) Branches, languages, modules makes it easier to find stuff. 2. (TODO) Connect DL with Transifex, with easy upload/download links. Possibly merge DL and Transifex, to make it even better (keep the hard parts of DL, and replace the easy ones with Transifex, makes it more dynamic) 3. (TODO) Sorting can be done better: always keep HEAD, tip, master on top to avoid confusion * Transifex: 1. (Eval) Combining the different VCS has been considerd the major succes the past year 2. (TODO) CLI has highest priority (over HTTP/JSON) 3. (TODO) Ability to check the commits by maintainers 4. (TODO) Increase verbosity, errors, etc 5. (TODO) Locking the files to one person; use mails to check when a files get updates, 6. (TODO) Automatic e-mails to list when pot-files get updated (Update the specific module when a pot-file gets committed, which sends a mail to the list <-> check on the updates-script which files changed and send thoose pot-files at that moment) 7. (TODO) Let Transifex send a mail to the apporpriate list on commits General ideas: -------------- * Translation memory: keeping the translations consistent, let translators do look-ups to make translations beter * Web translation interface: start to use Pootle to increase the input from the community. Pootle can do suggestion-based translations, which leaves the final responsibility with the translator/maintainer. Pootle can be configured per language, per module, ... . If possible (CLA permits, Legal needs to be contacted) allow outsiders to do suggestions. Pootle can also split a huge translation file into smaller chunks, so different translators can work on it at the same time * Localized spins on release day? ============ That's it, feel free to comment on anything, or if you don't get what it's about :-) Thanks to all who took part in this, Bart -- Bart <couf(a)fedoraproject.org> <couf(a)skynet.be> key fingerprint: 6AAB 544D 3432 D013 776D 3602 ADB6 6B2A D93F 0F93

Tracking modules not working in Tx
by Dimitris Glezos 28 Feb '08

28 Feb '08

FWIW, I've added a warning together with a bug report id to the description of each module not accepting translations. https://translate.fedoraproject.org/submit/module/ Another way we could track bug reports that interest us would be a "tracker" bug in BZ, which would depend on other reports and act as a place to report stuff not working for a reason. -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."
