The last date to sign the FPCA is June 17th 2011

Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15

A number of Fedora Documentation modules^[1] and Fedora Websites^[2] 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.

-=== Links for Untranslated Books Missing from Language Pages ===
+=== Translation Credit Loss Problem Resolved ===
-[[User:Beckerde | Domingo Becker]] informed<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007671.html</ref> that links to Fedora books were missing from the individual language start pages on docs.fedoraproject.org, if the books were not translated for that particular language. He suggested that the links to the English books can be added here to avoid confusion as well as to encourage new translators to join in.
+A major issue related to the loss<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/Issue264#Copyright_Information_and_Comments_Deleted_from_.PO_files_on_transifex.net</ref> of Translator Credits in modules submitted via transifex.net has been resolved by the Transifex development team<ref>http://blog.transifex.net/2011/05/transifex-net-update-may-25/</ref>. The problem had also been escalated to the Fedora Legal team<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-May/008974.html</ref><ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-May/001622.html</ref>.
-[[User:Rlandmann | Ruediger Landmann]] replied<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007674.html</ref> that the links are automatically generated based upon the existing versions of the books for a language and this list cannot be modified manually. As an alternative, all the books can be rebuild for each language, even if they are untranslated or by suppressing partial translations, which would allow all the books being listed. But this would result in storing multiple copies of same content in the repository. He has also suggested adding a note on the Welcome page to inform visitors to check the full list of documents by changing to the English page.

-=== Introduction Paragraph of Fedora Live Images Missing ===
+=== Autotranslate Feature Disabled for Fedora Modules on Transifex ===
-Due to a mismatch in the Publican version used for building .PO files and publishing them, a number of translated strings from the 'Fedora Live Images' document do not show up in the build version of the book<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007690.html</ref>. [[User:Rlandmann | Ruediger Landmann]] explained that this format was being used to prevent major breakages in the strings that would have happened by using publican 1.6.3 to update the books, ahead of Fedora GA. At present, Rudi can refresh these documents again, this time using publican 1.6.3 as per requests from Language teams<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007691.html</ref>.

-=== Missing Strings in Fedora Website Files ===
-[[User:Mrtom | Thomas Canniot]] reported<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007684.html</ref> about some missing strings in the master=>fedoraproject .POT file. Although an msgmerge was run by [[User:Ricky | Ricky Zhou]], the strings are still missing probably due to them not being marked for translation<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007701.html</ref>.
