=== Fedora 11 Preview Release Notes Proof-reading ===
=== Document Colophon ===


[[User:Jjmcd| John J. McDonough]] announced<ref>http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00147.html</ref> the availability of the built version of the Fedora 11 Preview Release Notes for proof-reading. These notes would be available until Fedora 11 GA.
[[User:Beckerde| Domingo Becker]]<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00149.html</ref> and [[TianShixiong]]<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00160.html</ref> made a request to add the names of all the past/present translators of Fedora Installation Guide in the books. Considering the vast number of languages and translators, [[PaulFrields]] had initially suggested adding the names of the writers and translators into individual wiki pages which could be linked to the Document's Colophon section, since the list of names could potentially run into quite a few pages.
 
Alternatively, [[User:Beckerde| Domingo Becker]] suggested<ref>https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-April/msg00174.html</ref> restricting the names of translators for only a particular language in the translated version of the document for that language.

Translation

This section covers the news surrounding the Fedora Translation (L10n) Project.

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/L10N

Contributing Writer: Runa Bhattacharjee


Document Colophon

Domingo Becker[1] and TianShixiong[2] made a request to add the names of all the past/present translators of Fedora Installation Guide in the books. Considering the vast number of languages and translators, PaulFrields had initially suggested adding the names of the writers and translators into individual wiki pages which could be linked to the Document's Colophon section, since the list of names could potentially run into quite a few pages.

Alternatively, Domingo Becker suggested[3] restricting the names of translators for only a particular language in the translated version of the document for that language.

Missing sections from the F11 Release Notes

DomingoBecker reported about three missing sections in the .po files for the Release Notes[1]. These 3 sections are currently not available for translation.

Fedora 11 Countdown Banner

The countdown banner for the Fedora 11 Release is available for translation[1]. For correct display the mgopen-fonts package may be required to be installed. The .svg files with the singluar/plural versions of the countdown message are to be sent to Paolo Leoni [2].

Fedora Security Guide Now Available on translate.fedoraproject.org

Translations for the Fedora Security Guide can now be submitted via translate.fedoraproject.org[1]. Eric Christensen requested for the book to be added to translate.fedoraproject.org[2].

Additionally, Diego Búrigo Zacarão pointed out[3] that the translations for this book do not need to be submitted to the target 'po/lang.po'. Unlike other modules there is no 'po' directory for this book and the file has to be uploaded to the target 'lang.po', where 'lang' is the language code of the file being uploaded.

FLP Meeting Scheduled

The next meeting of the Fedora Localization Project is scheduled for 5th May 2009, Tuesday at 1900UTC on #fedora-meeting channel[1].

Freeze break in comps module

Bill Nottingham requested[1] a freeze break for the comps module to include the names for languages for which support has been added in the upcoming release of Fedora. The changes were committed after an aye from the FLP team[2].

Transifex Translation Request

The .po files for Transifex User Interface translation has been included in translate.fedoraproject.org by Dimitris Glezos and Piotr Drag[1]. Both the development release and the current stable (0.6.x) release are available for translation.

It is to be noted, that after the release of Fedora 11 and the lifting of the Fedora Infrastructure freeze, translate.fedoraproject.org would be upgraded to Transifex v.0.6[2]
