We started the OSGeo-Live 10.5 release cycle with a goal of adopting
transifex to do our translations.
Our initial attempts hit some hurdles, and Richard Duivenvoorde joined
our team providing us with some excellent guidance. But transifex is not
ready yet to hand over to the OSGeo-Live translators, and ideally we
want to give translators plenty of time to get familiar with the new
tools. Considering that we should have already created a beta version 2
weeks ago (as per Angelos' email below) I think we should go with our
prior, manual git based translation for the 10.5 release.
Richard has suggested that we should have Tranifex in place before
FOSSGIS (22 March) and FOSS4G-EU (18 July). These events could be a good
opportunity to set up a Tranifex translation workshop or code-sprint or
similar if someone would like to set it up?
Thoughts?
Angelos, I'm +1 for creating a beta ASAP. We just need to check the
version number in the docs reflects the version number of the beta.
Is our spreadsheet with version numbers up to date?

Hi all,
We are currently 2 weeks behind of our beta release, which should have
happened in Jan 27th.
In our weekly meeting 2 weeks ago, there was a motion to release beta,
but it was withdrawn until we had the new documentation in place. In
today's meeting it was decided to not use the new docs in 10.5 release
since they are still in early development.
So we are now 3 weeks away from our scheduled release date and have
not even released a beta...
I would like to suggest that we release a beta ASAP, call for testers
and move the schedule 2 weeks forward (i.e. RC on Mar 7 and final
release on Mar 20). I also suggest that the planned conferences for
early March should make their own decision whether to use 10.5 RC iso
or 10.0 iso for their booths.
Best,
Angelos
