=== Errors in Release Notes for Chinese and German ===
=== Autotranslate Feature Disabled for Fedora Modules on Transifex ===


[[User:Jjmcd | John J. McDonough]] reported tag related errors for Traditional & Simplified Chinese<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00090.html</ref> and German<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00084.html</ref> translations of the Fedora 12 Release Notes. These errors were identified during the nightlt builds of the documents. The German translation error was fixed by [[User:Jensm | Jens Maucher]], while the tag errors in the Chinese translations were fixed temporarily by [[User:Rlandmann | Ruediger Landmann]].  
The Autotranslate feature on transifex.net has been disabled for Fedora modules in view of a possible conflict with the Terms of Usage of the Google Translated API that was being used for the feature<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-May/001621.html</ref>.


Additionaly, [[User:Jjmcd | John J. McDonough]] also mentioned that some sections of the translated versions of the Release Notes do not display the translated content in the built documents, inspite of the translations being present in the .po file. [[User:Rlandmann | Rudi]] clarified that this is a known issue and often occurs when translated .po files  are split and merged with the individual component files as required by Publican<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00097.html</ref>.

The name of the multimedia-menus package was transcribed as 'multimedia menus' in the original english version of the Fedora 12 Release Notes that was handed to the Fedora Translation teams. As a result, this was translated into many languages. The maintainer of 'multimedia-menus' [[User:Oget | Orcan Ogetbill]] brought forward this issue<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00100.html</ref>.

=== SSSD and MC Translation Request ===
=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===


Translation requests have been made to the Fedora Localization Project by the maintainers of System Security Services Daemon (SSSD)<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00077.html</ref> and Midnight Commander (MC)<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00109.html</ref>. The former is hosted at www.transifex.net to accept translations, since the upstream project requires all patches (inlcuding translations) to be reviewed by the repository validators. SSSD would be string frozen on the 23rd of November 2009.
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.


Midnight Commander currently uses some parts of the Gnome Infrastruture, but uses its own git repository. Suggestions to allow easier translation submissions, include that the  project be listed at translate.fedoraproject.org under 'various'<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00113.html</ref>, hosted on www.transifex.net<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00110.html</ref> or be moved to git.gnome.org<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-November/msg00114.html</ref>.
