[russian] small change on your translation (fedoraproject.org)
by Kévin Raymond 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi guys, The website failed to build because of one translation, this time it was on the ru.po file. I've made the necessary change and pushed to transifex.net (only the russian team is concerned). I've replaced the wikipedia url "http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9E%D0%BF%D0%B5%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%86%D0%B8%D0%…" which gave us the error by the utf8 one, "http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Операционная_система". Our Genshi template was not so happy with all this percent characters, it were looking for arguments. Please avoid them next time :) Cheers, -- Kévin Raymond (shaiton) GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2

New f17-alpha transifex.net resource
by Kévin Raymond 23 Feb '12

23 Feb '12

Hi translators, We have just created the new fedoraproject.org f17-alpha resource under transifex, for you to translate few added string on time for alpha release (the 28th). See all available resource there: https://fedora.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-web/resources/ We should block translations on fedoraproject.org master branch in few days. Please translate now only on fedoraproject-org-f17-alpha. Actually the website is built against "fedoraproject.org master branch" but will switch to "fedoraproject-org-f17-alpha" the 28th. By that time, you're able to read your translations on the staging instance, at http://stg.fedoraproject.org/ Same should appear for beta an Dday! (New content is comming, sorry could not write it before). Happy translating! -- Kévin Raymond (Shaiton)

Hi all, There is system-config-kdump project on transifex [1] currently maintained by *glezos* (Dimitris Glezos). I would like to grab the maintainership and update pot files (pot files are updated in the git repo). [1] https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/system-config-kdump/ RR

For the first time I've tried Linux in 2010, when Ubuntu 10.04 came out. Since that time I've tried all the popular distributions, and I chose Fedora. I'm happy to use it since the time F15 came out. My native language is Russian. I'll be glad to do anything that can help Fedora Project. I'm ready to translate even very long texts as I'm very interested in learning English and obtaining translation skills.

Some fedora projects are still not using transifex (properly)
by Kévin Raymond 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Hi guys, We have moved to transifex.net long ago now, and still some projects are not alive to us! Some devels just don't know how to deal with transifex and transifex-client, some does not know that they have to pull (or fill the hook URL on the project setup), and some just never build update with our translations. That's really painful for us, who spend so much time providing translations. And know, we have the ability to proofread translations, but devels simply don't know about it cause they don't read transifex release notes. And they are devels, not translators, they should not have to. How could we efficiently deal with them? Writing on devel? Too noisy there. Filling trac tickets? Probably the best solution, but take lot of time for the reporter to explain what is needed. IMHO, our FLSCo members should do that, but this is a lot for few people (how many of our FLSCo seats are alive???). The most important to me is to clean our projects. Could we have a list of dead upstream to ping? By dead uptream, I mean projects without any maintainer, without anyone which is pulling our translations and pushing pot back. This could be done by filtering projects with wrong maintainers like Dimitris[1] (linked to [2]), and also the one who have never pushed a pot for a long time (or even never pulled if possible, dunno what we can see from the Indifex side).

Hey Lennart, I feel commits are not the best way to handle neither translation nor attribution for a number of reasons. The attribution issue was fixed in the following way: Transifex remembers every single translation and adds the copyright information in the PO file header itself, which is probably the optimal way to give attribution. You can use this information in your release notes. If needed, we can provide an API call to provide you with this information too. # Translators: # Diego Búrigo Zacarão <diegobz(a)indifex.com>, 2011. # Zbyněk Schwarz <zbynek.schwarz(a)gmail.com>, 2011, 2012. > I have not been following development of Tx closely, so maybe there's > now some toolset available to convert the combined translation updates > as individual git commits. Is there? There hasn't been a high enough demand for this to sit down and develop it. There's a quite rich API available and a git-like client which can be tweaked to produce git-like commits. -d -- Dimitris Glezos Founder and CEO, Transifex US Tel: +1.650.440.2308 Social Localization Crowdsourcing http://www.transifex.com/ -- http://angel.co/transifex

The problem that I see is that the translators that have spent time translating it has just seen their project removed, and an other guy is able to continue translating. While some translators are expert, some other just don't take enough time to get quality. I would have been really desapointed in that case. The translationproject.org is great, but you have one to many files assigned to one translators (and not one to many translators in one file), and you NEED to sign the Disclaimer with the FSF… I am still waiting for them to let me translate… If the make project would have been in transifex, I would have corrected (lot of) typo by December. I still not have acces while the assigned translator is not responding. > > If you're used to version-controlling your project's .po files, you may > not see the point, since then, downloading .po files is usually done only > by the maintainer.

Requesting translation strings for SSSD project
by Stephen Gallagher 21 Feb '12

21 Feb '12

SSSD has been in string freeze since Feb 7 for its upstream 1.8.0 release (which is going into Fedora 17). I made an announcement through Transifex and on the sssd-devel list, but so far I've seen only two languages provide any updates: Ukrainian (now 100% complete) and French (now 55% complete). We are planning to finalize the 1.8.0 release one week from today, on Feb 28th. I would be highly appreciative if any interested translators would please look into at least the manpage translations at https://fedora.transifex.net/projects/p/sssd/ I apologize for not posting to this list earlier, but I was under the incorrect assumption that making a Transifex announcement would carry to this list. As a side-note, it would be very nice if we could make that happen.

Is Transifex having problems, or is it just me?
by Göran Uddeborg 20 Feb '12

20 Feb '12

I translated the remaining messages in the Swedish translation of Anaconda, the f17 branch yesterday. I upload the file and things looks fine. But the statistics remain on 98%, and when I download it again today the new messages remain untranslated. I uploaded the translated version again today, twice, but again it seems it doesn't update anything. Is there any explanation for this?
