ko.po and new language
by Noriko Mizumoto
Hi Jared and Paul
Thank you so much adding new ko.po.
Does the Korean translator need to translate something for docs-common?
Any procedure to follow, if some language translator likes to fresh
start of release note translation?
cheers

Colophon
by Paul W. Frields
There is a bug in the xml2po program from gnome-doc-utils, as found in
Fedora 9 and earlier (including RHEL 5). It prevents us from using
non-ASCII characters in parsed character data in DocBook, such as
people's names in the Colophon. If we use non-ASCII, we cannot properly
validate the DocBook XML content.
There are several ways to solve this. One of the easier solutions is to
no longer include the colophon in the actual release notes, but link to
it from the document. However, this has the side effect of removing a
public thank-you to our wonderful translators and documentation
contributors.
What we've done instead is to comment out these names, *only* until we
work on the final release notes for GA. At that point we will uncomment
the strings. They will end up as "untranslated," but I (or someone in
Docs) will try to make the appropriate PO changes to copy them as
needed. When we build the release notes, we will do it in Rawhide,
where xml2po is fixed. The names will then show up properly in the
rendered Colophon section.
This problem will recur in earlier releases, though, until and unless
someone asks the gnome-doc-utils maintainers to backport the fix (if
possible) to gnome-doc-utils in RHEL 5 and Fedora 9.

This is why one should be *very* careful pushing from master directly.
I used a wrong refspec for git-push and ended up removing
'master' (temporarily!) from the server. Thank heavens for the way git
works, because I was able to restore the 'master' branch successfully
with a new push.
/me wipes sweat from brow and promises not to do that again.

Release Notes heads-up
by Paul W. Frields
Jesse, et al. --
Be on the lookout for slight changes in the release notes package.
Content has changed somewhat while we try to maneuver our tools closer
to using the publican tool. We will probably not make that target for
F10, but the changes we have made are subtle:
* Names of documents may have changed from
e.g. RELEASE-NOTES-en_US.html => Release_Notes-en-US.html.
* To be safe, you may want to have any tools that copy content for use
on our released spins check for both "en-US" and "en_US" in the
appropriate places.

#9: Network Configuration - Chapter 9 update
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
Reporter: quaid | Owner: soulspecter

Priority: major | Milestone: RC-ready

Comment (by soulspecter):
A few lines were removed from section 9. And this was added to the
begining:
"Setup simply prompts for the hostname and the settings used
during installation are written to the system..."
Section 9.1 and subsection, 9.2 and 9.3 were removed since Network Manager
now only asks for a host name in the network setup process.
The "MODEM Config" tip and the "IPv6 and Boot Options" note are still
included.
