=== Fedora 11 Release Notes Discussion ===
The last date to sign the FPCA is June 17th 2011


After the announcement last week<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00028.html</ref> about the availability of the Fedora 11 Preview Release Notes for translation, a number of translators have put forward their concerns about the  difficulty in translating these notes due to vast coverage of content and complicated technical text<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00089.html</ref>.
<references/>


As a solution to this, it has been suggested that the Release Notes be restricted to information that is important to general users and useful to migration from on release to another. The additional information about package improvements etc. may be made part of the SIG pages on the wiki.<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00090.html</ref>. One of the writers [[User:Rlandmann | Ruediger Landmann]], has put forward the link to the draft version of Fedora 11 Installation Guide for similar feedback.<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00091.html</ref>
=== Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15 ===


At present, some of the teams have chosen to either translate the core information, divide the translation work amongst multiple translators or to drop translation for this release.
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.

Translation Credit Loss Problem Resolved

A major issue related to the loss[1] of Translator Credits in modules submitted via transifex.net has been resolved by the Transifex development team[2]. The problem had also been escalated to the Fedora Legal team[3][4].


Autotranslate Feature Disabled for Fedora Modules on Transifex

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[1].

All participants to the Fedora Localization Project are required to sign[1] 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[2]

The last date to sign the FPCA is June 17th 2011

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.
