FLSCo Election Proposed
After a brief discussion on the mailing list[1], an election for a new FLSCo is being currently considered, provided a suitable number of candidates volunteer themselves for nomination[2].
Update About translate.fedoraproject.org Issues
In continuance to the discussion last week about the various issues affecting the normal operations of the current infrastructure of translate.fedoraproject.org[1], Stickster suggested[2] the Fedora L10n Infrastructure team to distribute the tasks in the to-do list for upgradation to the new version of Transifex as proposed by Diego. He also called for assistance from the Fedora Documentation, Devel and Infrastructure teams to assist in the upgrade process.
Mentoring of New Members
The co-ordinator of the Simplified Chinese team, Yuan Yijun suggested the introduction of a mentoring process within the Fedora Localization Process, that would help new translators to be made familiar with the work flow and allow them to make prolonged contribution within the project. He cited the mentoring process currently in place for the Fedora Ambassador's group, as a reference[1].
