Persian website translation
by Robert Mayr 20 May '18

20 May '18

Hi Persian translators, please be careful when translating strings with variables. While a simple wrong translation does not harm to anyone (except to local people who will note the error), a mistake in a string with web variables will break the build of the whole website. Sometimes this can happen and normally I just fix them directly on Zanata, but this time there were several strings with the same mistake. Maybe you can ask your coordinator to give you a hand or to review them before saving them as approved. I have set them all back for now to the source, in order to get the website built. I also think, if you are not able to reach out to the coordinator, you will find many people on this list who might be willing to help you if you have doubts. Thank you for all your work you are doing on the websites, I know it is not easy sometimes and we need to have a lot of variables in the strings to fit our needs. Kind regards. -- Robert Mayr (robyduck)

Hello from Turkey

Hi all, This is an over-due introduction. I am Muhammet Kara from Turkey, a Fedora user and advocate, and member/translator/developer of various FOSS projects. My contributions to Fedora translations date back to 2011 (on Transifex), but I haven't been active on the new infra although I translated a few strings on Zanata on various occasions. (PS: I appreciate an approval for the cvsl10n group, and an invite for the l10n group.) Mainly what I do about/for Fedora: * Use it, and report the bugs I find * Spread the word about it * Give Fedora related tech support to friends, family, and usually whoever asks about it * Translate Fedora * Translate/support external upstream projects Some other FOSS projects I contribute(d) to: * GNOME * GNOME Turkish Translation Team (coordinator) * GNOME Engagement Team (member) * LibreOffice * I am a LibreOffice Certified Developer, and core code contributor * I also work with the Design Team, and the Marketing Team to spread the love * KDE * Retired translator * The Translation Project * Translator I think it is time to revive the Fedora community in Turkey. :) Cheers, Muhammet -- https://muhammetkara.com https://twitter.com/muhamm3tkara https://wiki.gnome.org/MuhammetKara https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Kara https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Muhammetk

F28 websites translation string freeze
by Robert Mayr 01 May '18

01 May '18

Hi all, for F28 final release we are going to have several changes on our websites, which also means we will have new strings and updated content. That's the reason why we need to freeze translations at some point. Actually we are still updating the content, but we didn't push it to Zanata yet. Before doing so we will stop pulling translations to production until F28 release date. You will be able to check your work in staging, so please don't stop translating during the freeze, it's just a way to preserve your translated strings in production until we merge F28 into master. As usual I'll send another reminder once we enter the freeze. Thank you all for your work. Best regards. -- Robert Mayr (robyduck)
