=== FLP Infrastructure to Move to Transifex.net ===
=== Translation Credit Loss Problem Resolved ===


Members of the FLP, Fedora Infrastructure, Fedora Project Leader [[User:Jsmith | Jared Smith]] and [[User:Stickster | Paul Frields]] met on 15th February 2011<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-February/008596.html</ref> to discuss about the proposal to move the Fedora Translation infrastructure to Transifex.net. It was unanimously accepted that the current infrastructure cannot be maintained at present due to the lack of administrative resources and the move to Transifex.net accepted. Further meetings with the other affected groups - Fedora Devel, Fedora Documentation team have also been scheduled. [[User:Glezos | Dimitris Glezos]] would be leading the migration effort<ref>https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/2605</ref> with other members of the FLP pitching in for the additional tasks<ref>http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting/2011-02-15/fedora-meeting.2011-02-15-13.00.html</ref>.
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>.


The migration has been marked as a major priority to be put in place for Fedora 15 Translation. As the string freeze date coincided with the meeting date, there are fears that the translation time may be reduced for the translators.


Concerns were also raised by several members. FLSCo member [[User:Noriko | Noriko]] and [[User:Runab | Runa]] suggested that an exit plan be also put in place to keep open the option to host the infrastructure on Fedora Servers again in future.

=== Proposal for a FAS Group for Experienced Translators ===
=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===


[[User:Raven | Piotr Drąg]] has put  forward a proposal<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-February/008612.html</ref> to create a new FAS group for translators with advanced experience, who would be allowed to commit directly into the backend repositories for the Fedora Packages. This would allow members from the FLP to quicky fix L10n related problems.
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.
