In about 1 week we would like to push a snapshot of the release notes beats on the wiki to translation. If you have a beat on the wiki please try to get any updates completed by Dec 7 23:59 UTC. The snapshot should be going to Translation by Dec 9 23:59 UTC. Translations will be due back 10 days later (Dec 19 23:59 UTC) for packaging and publishing.

There are some people currently looking into this. Basically, we'll try to separate the `po` file of the release notes from the other two because it's significantly bigger. Unfortunately, it's not a trivial task because it affects packaging, so I can't say if we will be able to do it at this time. If not, then the separation will have to wait for FC7. Are there any other translators that would like to translate the messages of "Browser Start page" and "System -> About Fedora" but don't have the time/resources to translate the Release notes?

Sorry to be late to the thread here. I am starting with the homepage and moving these into separate modules. I'm confident this will work for an FC-6 update at some point (probably in January 2007), and we will use that model for release 7 and going forward. My plan is to modularize the following: release-notes - only that content from the Beats on the wiki readme - The standard descriptive README on CD/DVD #1 readme-burning-isos - Helpful information for the mirrors on burning CDs about - The "About Fedora" menu item homepage - The browser splash HTML page

With the exception of "release-notes" (which already exists), I need someone to create these modules in i18n CVS for us to populate with POT once this work is done. (I have an account there with write access, but if some additional ACL is used, please allow me to write to these modules.)
