Revisiting the translation freeze policies
by Randy Barlow
Greetings!
During Friday's FESCo meeting[0] we were asked to approve a change to
the release schedule to accommodate translation string freeze deadlines
that somehow got left out of the new "no-alphas" schedule.
Several participants pointed out that Fedora has not enforced the
"string freeze" in many years, despite it being on the schedule until
now. Thus, we would like to revisit the string freeze policy to
determine if it is still valuable, and if so, how can/should it be enforced?
We'd like to explore a couple of questions:
* What exact things are frozen? Things like comps make sense to follow
Fedora freezes, but do things like anaconda? or system-config-printer?
* Can we automate some way of enforcing or at least detecting when
something changes a string in the freeze?
This ticket tracks the issue:

Self-Introduction
by Takuro Nagamoto
Hi everyone,
My name is Takuro Nagamoto. I am a Japanese translator at Red Hat, based in Brisbane, Australia.
I just wanted to let you know that I took over a coordinator role for Fedora Japanese translation from Noriko, who left Red Hat in January (greatly missed).
Hope to contribute to the Fedora Japanese translation team as a coordinator/translator/reviewer (I already have those privileges granted on zanata).
Regards,
Takuro Nagamoto

Self-Introduction: Elena Metelli (ITA)

Name: Elena Metelli
Location: Milan, Italy

Language: Italian
Profession: System Administrator
About me and the Fedora Project: I graduated in foreign languages but my true passion is IT. I work as System Administrator on RHEL-based systems in Italy and I've been a happy Fedora user since release 16 (I know, not a long time). I was a LUG member for a couple of years and, since April 2017, I write technical/news articles for an Italian Linux blog. I've always wanted to contribute to Fedora in some way and help with translation sounds like a good starting point! I know English decently and I used to translate content from ENG to ITA for a company offering monitoring services. I'm also a (newbie) Russian student.

Websites: F27 Beta release and beyond
by Robert Mayr
Hi all,
so we are going to release F27 Beta tomorrow and we didn't enter any freeze
this time. If you didn't had the chance to get on the new strings, then do
it before Release Time, we will pull translations even for the release
build.
You might know we are not releasing Fedora F27 Beta traditional Server, but
we will switch to Modular Server, which is not ready and will have its own
schedule. That means we will branch for Modular Server just after releasing
F27 Beta, in order to get on the new pages immediately. Unfortunately we
need also to freeze translations at the same time in production, so don't
be afraid if you don't see any changes.
We will, just after Fedora 27 Beta release, build staging websites with the
new Modular Server branch and you will be able to see your new strings
online. the plan is to merge this branch into master just before F27 GA, so
that means we will work on two branches simultaneously.
It sounds probably more complicated as it is, just remember we will enter a
special translation freeze tomorrow because we start working on Modular
Server. For any questions please just ask or ping me on IRC.
Thank you all for your hard work.
Kind regards.
