Migration to Weblate is done, goodbye Zanata
by Jean-Baptiste Holcroft 07 Jan '21

07 Jan '21

Dear translators, the unique Fedora translation platform is now https://translate.fedoraproject.org the old translation platform is now disabled (https://fedora.zanata.org will soon redirect you to Fedora wiki) We had 116 projects in Zanata: * 30 did not require migration (obsolete or tests) * 11 are unconfirmed, I don't know, most probably dead projects. * 75 were active. On these 75 projects, 63 were successfully migrated. Remaining projects did not respond on time or did not confirm everything worked fine. From the day we started with Weblate, here are the changes: * Weblate can now open Pull Requests for any Gitlab platform (ping Pulseaudio friends) * Weblate can now open Pull Requests for Pagure (still a little bit buggy, but bugs are quickly fixed) I think we started with Weblate 3.9, it means we had about 23 upgrades, and as far as I know, close to zero down time. Kind remember: as long as the project is open-source, it can be hosted by the Fedora project. Just open a ticket there: https://pagure.io/fedora-l10n/tickets In terms of stats, we now have: * 106 projects containing 2882 translations files (fedora-docs is 80% of the translation files) * 116 languages by 444 contributors * since the begining, 278 212 translations were made (a new translation or a correction of an existing translation) For more numbers, visit https://translate.fedoraproject.org/stats/ and https://translate.fedoraproject.org/#reports A big thank you to each contributor who helped in this migration, I include in this translators, projects maintainers and Michal Cihar (the weblate dev who answers Fedora requests). A big thank you to the Fedora council for accepting to pay for this tool. A big thank you for the Zanata devs, we were happily using it for a while, as a translators, its translation memory were awesome! Jean-Baptiste

Fedora docs internationalization is now fixed
by Jean-Baptiste 03 Jan '21

03 Jan '21

Dear translators, first of all, for those following the Gregorian calendar, I wish an happy new year, with hope that you'll all continue to be proud of all you do for free software and your language! All the work each of you is quietly doing all over the internet to translate software is reaching end users and enabling them to use free software. Even if there isn't much way for them to thank you, they do enjoy it. The internationalization of Fedora documentation system was broken since November 12th 2020. Action needed: many strings are now to review, for example for Council documentation https://translate.fedoraproject.org/projects/fedora-docs-l10n-council/#lang… Two causes: * for inclusion motivation, Fedora slowly move from "master" to "main" for default git branch. * moved or removed documentation page were not deleted by our scripts, which resulted in conflicts (Antora stopping in case of duplicate pages). Fixing the pipeline takes quite a lot of time, there is a few scripts involved and fixing/validating results is slow. The impact: * Many strings are now to review, Weblate detected similarities and suggest you to reuse previous translation. To find them: open the language pages, select your language and sort project per suggestion or name: https://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/ * The amount total number of words to translate was reduced by 50 000 words (with a total of 2 218 852) * The amount of pages reduced from 2335 to 2172. Current ranking, congratulation to Indonesian translators :) Lang Progress Translated words id 12,87% 285,582 tr 6,27% 139,130 es 6,24% 138,464 pt_BR 5,87% 130,254 fr 3,63% 80,549 pl 2,95% 65,460 uk 1,64% 36,391 nl 0,97% 21,524 cs 0,74% 16,420 sv 0,59% 13,092 Please note there is still a few components to create: diversity-inclusion-events, diversity-inclusion-outreachy, diversity-inclusion-roles, diversity-inclusion-survey, fedora-coreos and i3. I'll try to automate this creation, so this may take time. Please ping me if you want to translate these soon. Have a nice day, Jean-Baptiste
