-Due to a bug present in the currently available version of Publican (2.1) which affects generation and updation of POT and PO files, the POT files were generated using the new version of Publican, which is not yet available in the Fedora Repos.

-=== Proposed Process to Make Non-English Documentation Available for Translation ===
+=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===
-The Spanish Translation team has been working with the Fedora Documentation team to prepare a process to make documents written in languages other than English to be available for translation<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-September/007951.html</ref>. The need for the process arose when the Spanish team put forward a proposal to make available a document originally written in Spanish for the Fedora Documentation Project in English. The suggestions all indicate that generation of English POT files would be essential to allow other language teams to translate these documents to their language.
+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.
