Lang codes strike again
by Petr Kovar
Hi list,
I found out that there was a wrong code for Bosnian language in our list of
lang code mappings that is shared on the docs wiki and used in many guides:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Setting_up_a_document_with_Transifex#Step_...
Also, new lang codes have been added to the Fedora Project in Tx recently
so we need to update the Tx config file in our guides accordingly. The
updated and hopefully fixed list of lang codes is as follows:
lang_map = aln:aln-AL, ar:ar-SA, as:as-IN, bal:bal-PK, bg:bg-BG,
bn:bn-BD, bn_IN:bn-IN, bs:bs-BA, ca:ca-ES, cs:cs-CZ, da:da-DK,
de_CH:de-CH, de:de-DE, el:el-GR, en_GB:en-GB, es:es-ES, et:et-EE,
fa:fa-IR, fi:fi-FI, fr:fr-FR, gu:gu-IN, he:he-IL, hi:hi-IN,
hr:hr-HR, hu:hu-HU, id:id-ID, is:is-IS, it:it-IT, ja:ja-JP,
kn:kn-IN, ko:ko-KR, lt:lt-LT, lv:lv-LV, mai:mai-IN, ml:ml-IN,
mr:mr-IN, ms:ms-MY, nb:nb-NO, nds:nds-DE, nl:nl-NL, nn:nn-NO,
or:or-IN, pa:pa-IN, pl:pl-PL, pt_BR:pt-BR, pt:pt-PT, ro:ro-RO,
ru:ru-RU, si:si-LK, sk:sk-SK, sl:sl-SI, sq:sq-AL, sr:sr-RS,
sr@latin:sr-Latn-RS, sv:sv-SE, ta:ta-IN, te:te-IN, tr:tr-TR,
uk:uk-UA, ur:ur-PK, vi:vi-VN, zh_CN:zh-CN, zh_HK:zh-HK, zh_TW:zh-TW
Guide owners, please update the .tx/config file in your active branches.
(The User Guide and Deployment Guide are fixed already.)
Cheers,
Petr Kovar

Docs QA Day
by Zach Oglesby
As we are approaching the release of Fedora 16 I am proposing that we
have a QA day next Monday to look over any documentation that is
currently branched for Fedora 16 and make sure it looks correct. If
guide owners can publish or update their guides in the Draft
Documentation section of the docs website that would make this process
easier for everyone that is willing to help. This is a great way to
get involved for all of the new folks, if you are interested please
let me know.
Thanks,
Zach

Release Notes Dedication
by John J. McDonough
At the Docs meeting this morning it was decided to include a short
dedication to Dennis Ritchie in the Release Notes.
I've drafted the prose below. Please review it QUICKLY and pass along
any suggestions. We need to send POTs to L10N today, so whatever I have
by this afternoon is what will be in the Release Notes.
--McD
1. Dedicated to Dennis Ritchie
During the preparation of Fedora 16, the computing world lost one of
it's great contributors; Dennis Ritchie. Ritchie co-invented Unix and
the C language. He also co-authored "The C Programming Language", a book
that taught many programmers just at the time personal computing was
exploding. Without Ritchie computing would be nothing like it is today.
A humble man, not well-known outside his field, Dennis will always be
remembered by those of us who practice the craft. Thank you Dennis.

Ok,
therefore better is to add the Docs Mailing List or to drop by their
irc channel (#fedora-docs).
Please not that according to the schedule, Release Notes would be
pushed to docs.fpo the 8th of November.
I don't think that translators would need to do anything, that would
be handled by the docs team (jjmcd?)

Joining the Fedora Docs Project
by Miroslav Svoboda
Hi guys,
I'm Mirek (msvoboda on IRC). I've decided to join the Fedora Docs Project and help my friend Jaromir Hradilek and others with the Fedora Deployment Guide, starting with the ABRT chapter. In a past, I worked as a software developer (C/C++, shell scripts) and a system administrator (AIX) in several IT companies. Nowadays, I work as a technical writer. This is my first time participating in an open source community project and I'm looking forward to put my skills to a good use here.

Hi, I'd like to help!
by Pete Travis
Hello,
I'm Pete, and I'm a linux hobbyist. My day job is working as a field
technician for a large company that provides maintenance contracts to
the enterprise. I've been using Fedora for about three years, and have
been impressed with the quality of the product. There are lots of areas
I'd LIKE to contribute in, but documentation probably best fits my
skillset. There's a lot to learn from Fedora, and I've found a few
areas that aren't well documented. I realized today that I'd learn more
by teaching, and would like the group's approval and assistance in
becoming a contributor.
Thanks,
Pete Travis
