Fedora 14 Tasks

John Poelstra informed[1] the list about the upcoming tasks for Fedora 14. As per the schedule, translation of Beta Release Notes and all guides is currently underway.

Stability Problems for translate.fedoraproject.org

Thomas Canniot from the French translation team put forward a query wanting to know the reasons that have been causing the transifex instance used by translate.fedoraproject.org to malfunction over the past few months[1]. Dimitris Glezos suggested that in the absence of dedicated sysadmins to monitor translate.fedoraproject.org the Fedora translation platform could be moved to transifex.net[2]. However, this suggestion was not well received especially since Fedora generally prefers to host its services within its own infrastructure[3].

Noriko Mizumoto filed a ticket with Fedora Infrastructure to investigate the matter[4]. Kevin Raymond volunteered to understand the workings that may allow him to maintain the transifex RPM for Fedora[5].

Power Management Guide

The Power Management Guide for Fedora 14 is now available for translation via translate.fedoraproject.org[1].

FLP Representative for Fedora Websites

Kevin Raymond has taken up additional responsibility with the Fedora Websites team and has required permissions to modify .POT files to make corrections for bugs and other issues reported by the translators[1].

Anaconda Translation/Keyboard Test day

A Fedora Test Day dedicated to Translation and Keyboard issues in Anaconda was held on 16th September 2010[1]. Members from numerous language teams participated in the Test Day and reported their findings[2].
