Fedora 14 Tasks
John Poelstra informed[1] the list about the upcoming tasks for Fedora 14. As per the schedule, translation and review of the software UI messages is currently underway.
Problems Related to Statistics Display on translate.fedoraproject.org
After multiple complaints (including non-availability of files[1]) on the fedora-translation mailing list about errors in the translation statistics on translate.fedoraproject.org, Diego and Piotr removed the deprecated projects and releases from the list of projects that are refreshed during a translation statistic update[2]. The statistics refresh process was being stalled when it encountered some of these deprecated projects. The list of these packages are still available for historical information.
Earlier, a delayed update of the statistics for initscripts created much confusion about a string freeze break[3].
Image File for Translation Review Prepared
Fedora Release Engineering team has released an image file, which can be used by the Translators to test the translated messages on the user-interface of software packages lined up for Fedora 14[1].
Files for The Fedora Documentation Index Page
In response to a query from Noriko Mizumoto[1] and Yulia Poyarkova[2], Ruediger Landmann from the Fedora Documentation team listed out the files that are to be used by the translators to translate the Index page of Fedora Documentation[3]. However, the translations will not be automatically generated and needs to be published by a member of the the 'doc-publishers' group.
New Members and Sponsors in FLP
Nicolas Maître (French)[1], Tianle Wang[2], Hervé Marcy (French)[3] and Josep Sanchez (Catalan)[4] joined the Fedora Localization Project recently. Thomas Canniot is now a sponsor for the French team[5].
