=== Fedora 13 Release Delayed ===
=== Problems with Guide Submissions ===


As a result of the 1 week delay in the Fedora 13 Release<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/announce/2010-May/002806.html</ref>, the documentation and website related tasks have also been delayed accordingly<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007633.html</ref>. Hence, an additional week is now available for the translation tasks related to these projects.
Members from various translation teams have reported<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007651.html</ref><ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007654.html</ref> about difficulties that they were facing while submitting translations for Guides with multiple files, particularly the Installation Guide, Installation Quick Start Guide and Wireless Guide. Some translators have requested for a feature to submit multiple files in an archive format to avoid the current problems like timeouts a that they are facing on translate.fedoraproject.org.

[[User:Rlandmann| Ruediger Landmann]] announced<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2010-May/007639.html</ref> the release of Publican 1.6.3. This is a bug fix release and addresses several issues related to tags and string division. However, considering the upcoming release of Fedora 13, the Guide owners have been advised not to refresh the .POT files of their books with publican 1.6.3, as this would break the books.

Problems with Guide Submissions

Members from various translation teams have reported[1][2] about difficulties that they were facing while submitting translations for Guides with multiple files, particularly the Installation Guide, Installation Quick Start Guide and Wireless Guide. Some translators have requested for a feature to submit multiple files in an archive format to avoid the current problems like timeouts a that they are facing on translate.fedoraproject.org.

Changes in Fedora Website Pages

Due to changes in the design of the docs.fedoraproject.org website, a number of navigational links were altered, which needed to be updated in the Fedora Website pages. At present, Ricky Zhou[1] from the Fedora Website team has created a script to automatically replace the older links with appropriate new ones for the language on the build pages. The URLs for the translated versions would be included in the .PO files after the release of Fedora 13.
