=== Website Translation Process Update ===
 
[[RickyZhou]] reminded about the requirement of notification to be sent to the fedora-websites team for the inclusion of translations for a new language[3]. It is to be noted, that for new languages the relevant language code is also required to be added to the LINGUAS file. However, the notification sent to the fedora-websites team ensures that the apache configuration is modified to activate the translations for the new language.

=== L10n Infrastructure Roadmap Proposal ===
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.


In response to the earlier discussions about the problems faced by the L10n infrastructure, [[AsgeirFrimannsson]] has sent in a proposal for a review roadmap of the current infrastructure[11]. He explains that based upon the outcome of this discussion, further plans can be determined about restructuring the infrastructure.

Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15

A number of Fedora Documentation modules[1] and Fedora Websites[2] modules were not available for translation for Fedora 15 as they could not be migrated to transifex.net before the release.
