FLSCo chair and Transifex developer [[User:Glezos | Dimitris Glezos]] announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007059.html</ref> the release of Transifex v.0.8, code named Magneto. This release includes new features like Translation Teams, Translation Reviews, Timeline, advanced Notifications features, Subversion over https etc.  
=== FPCA Signing on Transifex.net ===


In response to a query regarding the upgradation of the transifex version in use on translate.fedoraproject.org, Dimitris suggested<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007072.html</ref> a direct upgrade to v. 0.8 instead of v. 0.7.4 which has been staged and is being tested currently . However, [[User:Pfrields | Paul W. Frields]] voiced his concern<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007079.html</ref> that this move may hinder the current upgrade process that is expected to solve most of the reported problems faced by the translation team. This was supported by FLSCo member [[User:Noriko | Noriko Mizumoto]]<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007082.html</ref>. [[User:Raven | Piotr Drag]]<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007073.html</ref> pointed that the 'Translation Team' feature in v.0.8 is currently not implementable in for transifex instance to be used in translate.fedoraproject.org.
All participants to the Fedora Localization Project are required to sign<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-May/008993.html</ref> the Fedora Project Contributor Agreement (FPCA) at https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora/cla/ in addition to signing it on the Fedora Account System<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/announce/2011-May/002960.html</ref>


[[User:Pfrields | Paul Frields]], also suggested that the bugs reported against the staged instance be collected and the blocker bugs be marked to help the Fedora Infrastructure team take decisions for the actual productization<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007071.html</ref>. Currently, Fedora Infrastructure is on a freeze for the Fedora 13 Alpha release.
The last date to sign the FPCA is June 17th 2011

=== Translated String Missing from gnome-packagekit ===
=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===


In response to a query posted<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007060.html</ref> by Danish translator [[User:Kristho| Kris Thomsen]] about the location of the string 'Add/Remove Software' (System => Administration => Add/Remove Software from the main panel), [[User:Beckerde | Domingo Becker]] pointed out<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007070.html</ref> that although the the translation for this string existed in the gnome-packagekit package (hosted in the GNOME repositories), the translated version is not being used on the User Interface. [[User:vpv | Ville-Pekka Vainio]] informed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-March/007077.html</ref> that this problem was most likely being caused due to an error in the gnome-packagekit build process, due to which the respective .desktop file is being improperly generated. This has been filed as a bug earlier and has been discussed with the package maintainer [[RichardHughes|Richard Hughes]]. Currently, the error persists in the development version.
A number of Fedora Documentation modules<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-May/008971.html</ref> and Fedora Websites<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-May/008990.html</ref> modules were not available for translation for Fedora 15 as they could not be migrated to transifex.net before the release. However, translation can be continued for some of these modules which are being gradually migrated by the writers to transifex.net.

A major issue related to the loss[1] of Translator Credits in modules submitted via transifex.net has been resolved by the Transifex development team[2]. The problem had also been escalated to the Fedora Legal team[3][4].


Autotranslate Feature Disabled for Fedora Modules on Transifex
