=== Additions to talk.fedoraproject.org ===
=== Autotranslate Feature Disabled for Fedora Modules on Transifex ===


[[RafaelGomes]] has volunteered to update content on talk.fedoraproject.org<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00026.html</ref> and would be creating the .pot file to make it available for translators. Additionally, [[User:Lucazz | Lucas Do Amaral]] has volunteered to add content regarding ekiga configuration<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00040.html</ref> that would ensure error free display of the translated content, as had been earlier reported by Richard van der Luit <ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00029.html</ref>.
The Autotranslate feature on transifex.net has been disabled for Fedora modules in view of a possible conflict with the Terms of Usage of the Google Translated API that was being used for the feature<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-May/001621.html</ref>.

=== Further discussion on the Infrastructure Roadmap ===
=== FPCA Signing on Transifex.net ===


In continuation to the earlier discussion, [[DimitrisGlezos]] mentions that the important issue currently is the inconsistent uptime of the system due to the lack of administration resources <ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00033.html</ref>. He also mentions that adding Publican support to the Transifex instance would be possible with support from the Fedora Publican group. Additionally, he mentions that Transifex v0.5 to be released in March, would have support for Statistics based display as a start to the future goal of supporting all the features of Damned Lies. It is to be noted that FLP uses Damned Lies and Transifex for its Translation infrastructure.
All participants to the Fedora Localization Project are required to sign<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/2011-May/008993.html</ref> the Fedora Project Contributor Agreement (FPCA) at https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora/cla/ in addition to signing it on the Fedora Account System<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/announce/2011-May/002960.html</ref>


[[DomingoBecker]] added a wishlist<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00059.html</ref> for the current system, that includes reservation of files for translation, timeout and notification system to the co-ordinator.
The last date to sign the FPCA is June 17th 2011
In a separate thread, [[FrancescoTombolini]] voiced his opinion about the lack of the file locking feature and the downtime in the statistics page <ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00078.html</ref>.

=== Migration of Damned Lies ===
=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===
 
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.

[[AsgeirFrimannsson]] had announced<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-February/msg00057.html</ref> the imminent migration of the old Damned Lies instance to the new Django-based Damned Lies instance. Damned Lies is used by http://translate.fedoraproject.org for generating the translation statistics.
