Concerns

Infra at lists

• Tx moved to proprietary. Our main concern we build fedora with FLOSS/FOSS by using FOSS tools. Move to alternate is supported.
• Two alternates raised: zanata (there are supporters) & Translatewiki (no particular supporter)
• Need developers agreement
• Instance (existing zanata instance or fedora infra to create new?)

trans at lists

• How to migrate existing teams, members and coordinators smoother
• How to separate existing language teams which are independent from FLP
• How zanata deal with translators' credits
• Integration with FAS, ML, Badges and wiki
• Integration with FAS: sign Fedora Project Contributor Agreement
• How hard would be the migration
• Email notification
• F21 schedule
• Pseudo-tree view of projects, whereas in Zanata, we end up with just a

list of projects, where it becomes difficult to find a particular project.

• Explicitly include in the schedule the concept of a parallel run. That is, a small slice of time when the

Zanata instance will mirror everything that Transifex has.
