=== Modules Updated in translate.fedoraproject.org ===
<references/>
 
5 modules have been updated[1] in translate.fedoraproject.org due to a move in the backend repositories. These are system-config-(services|date|samba|users|nfs). [[NilsPhilippsen]] had earlier conveyed[2] the proposed shift. These modules can now be updated via translate.fedoraprojet.org. [[DiegoZacarao]] also adds[1] that the docs modules for these 5 modules would also be added soon for translation submission.

The Fedora website pages can now be seen in two more languages - Russian[3] and Bulgarian[4].
