Context

The Fedora Localization Project contributors translate using a web user interface and can periodically use: command line interfaces, or file exports/imports.

Current processes

User stories

Translation memory:

Description Reasons, if required Priority
As a translator, I want to be able to query a translation memory containing a wide range of content so that knowledge beyond Fedora community is accessible.

This means: include in our translation memory translation from project out of the scope of the fedora translation community.

. .
As a localization coordinator, I can automatically complete existing translation using a translation memory using manual threshold so that useless operation for translators are limited. . .
As a localization coordinator, I have a tool to handle non-fedora translation content so that translation memory is continuously update. . .
. .

Automated translation:

Description Reasons, if required Priority
As a translator, I get suggestion from an automation translation engine based on a wide range of content to translate faster so that translation time is reduced.

This means we have a tool we fed with our translation memory and train it to have better result.

. .
As a localization coordinator, I can automatically complete existing translation using an automation translation engine manual threshold so that useless operation for translators are limited. . .
As a translator, I can ask for an automated translation of a file and review suggestion so that starting a new translation is faster. . .

Asynchronous translation:

Description Reasons, if required Priority
As a translator, I'm able to upload my translation files, so that contributing with limited internet access is possible. . .
As a translator, I'm able to interact with comments made inside the translation platform with an email client, so that contributing with limited internet access is possible.

That means like a github or pagure issue, when you get a notification, you can answer directly with email.

. .
As a translator, I'm able to interact with a mailing-list from the translation platform so that interaction issues with limited internet access contributors are limited. . .

System requirements

A clear and ergonomic interface

A limited number of steps to find your project and start working

A simple ability to read the flow between translation and distribution

Access to a translation memory

The enrichment of a glossary

See translations in other languages

Machine Translation (Google, Yandex, etc)

Detection, easy insertion and validation of existence of variables from source string to translation
