Proposal: Fedora G11N Steering Committee
by Pravin Satpute
Hi All,
I am sure, most of the people working with Fedora I18N, L10N from 5-6
year must be aware regarding Fedora L10N Steering Committee. [1] As far
as i know this committee was active around 2009 and very effective.
During Fedora G11N activity day discussions, we again felt there is
need for some kind of official committee to drive Fedora Globalization
activities. Fedora is growing faster with number of different domains
and G11N also need to adapt those changes quickly to remain on the track.
For this purpose and in line with [1], we were thinking of Fedora
Globalization steering committee. I have created initial proposal for
it. [2]
Its open for feedback, please feel free to share other active members,
discuss in your respective language groups. This is just initial
proposal and i am sure, we can improve and make it more effective with
active participation.
Regards,
Pravin Satpute

[Followup] Translation deadline around Beta
by Noriko Mizumoto
Hi All
I have looked through devel team schedule closer, and decided to propose
the move of all software translation related events rather than the add
another translation deadline, to minimize the impact to devel and
Rel-Eng teams. However I only have translator's view and not
developer's. If you think this is impossible with some reason, let me
know. Also it is much appreciated any input.
Thanks

Is detail information on strings available in Zanata online editor?
by Tiansworld
Hello everyone,
Recently I am updating the translation of anaconda on fedora.zanata.org. I
can't find any detail information about the string I'm translating. For
example, where does the string locate. This feature is called *occurrences*
in transifex. It tells the translator where the string comes from, in which
line, in which file.
This is really helpful when translators aren't sure about how to translate
the string. Then they can look up it in the original file to see the
context around it.
So could anyone tell me does Zanata have this feature? If it doesn't have,
would the Zanata project consider to implement it?
This message is CCed to g11n(a)lists.fedoraproject.org too.

Fwd: #59: tracking of translation string changes

#59: tracking of translation string changes
-----------------------+-------------------
Reporter: petersen | Owner: i18n@…
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: major | Keywords:
Blocked By: | Blocking:
-----------------------+-------------------
= description =
During the G11n FAD in Tokyo, we came up with the idea of tracking string
changes in Fedora to help catch string breakage and get some visibility on
translation status. Initially we would probably target only upstream
projects that are translated in Fedora Zanata for each Fedora release.
= reason =
Currently we have no direct way of knowing when strings change or break
the freeze in Fedora etc. This is valuable information for the L10n and
QA teams, and useful others too.
= recommendation/goal =
Create a tool/webapp to track translation in Fedora/Zanata.
For example it might compare what is in Zanata or Fedora packages vs what
is upstream in Github etc, and alert/flag
packages that need new strings to be pushed to Zanata or that have
translations to be pulled upstream from Zanata.

Zanata asking Fedora users to provide name, userid and email even after FAS openid login
by pravin.d.s@gmail.com
Hi All,
$subject. Two problems:
1. There is chance of FAS user can create account with different username
and it will affect our plan to connect with FedBus and generate stats.
2. Was talking with CLA agreement with Zanata guys earlier. They said
rather than they work on signing agreement from users, they want user
simply sign CLA of different project i.e. Fedora, OepnStack and they will
simply connect users to respective project portal. In this case no need to
sign other terms of Zanata (please correct me here if i am wrong). I mean
just user can simply log in and start work.
Most of you might have seen it earlier. I thought its possible to get
rid of this and created ticket against Fedora Infra. [1]
Looks like there is method/way already. Will be very nice if we can
improvement it. Will be very nice if Zanata team works with puiterwijk and
fix it soon.

Pravin Satpute
