Hi everybody,
I will write this message in English, so our friends from Sun also
understand what I'm talking about.
I've had a (very good) email conversation with Rafaella the past few
days about the reviewing process. She expressed some concerns regarding
the fact that there's only one person reviewing a certain part of the
help. I can share that concern, since it's not good for consistency.
However, because the big load of work that has to be done, we're quite
short handed. So that's the main reason I didn't pay much attention to
it at the first place. But that wouldn't be good for the end result so
something has to be done about it. Here's what I came up with:
The "nl.openoffice.org localization veterans" all know Natalie. She has
reviewed (almost) the entire help for OOo 1.x and she has done a great
job with that. So I asked her if she is willing to do the same for OOo
2.x and she is. This means that she will review all the review sheets
that we come up with in order to keep consitency at a high level.
Another thing we need to do in order to keep a high consistency level is
to use the style guide. I didn't mention that one in the review guide I
wrote, because I thought it died a silent death. But it turns out that
that isn't the case. So for all reviewers, please download the style
guide from http://www.xs4all.nl/~simonbr/stijlgids-04.sxw and have a
look at it.
Since Henk has had some confusions in the beginning of the reviews there
are a couple of review files on issue 57793 that shouldn't be used. My
suggestion is to close down that issue and transfer the files that are
correct to a new issue.
Finally, there's the following plan on handling builds. Pavel Janik
makes milestone builds on a regular basis. He also makes language packs
for those builds. He has agreed to making a key-id language pack for
each build he makes. The idea is that we are going to use these builds
for reviewing. By adding the language pack to OOo it's possible to
switch between the regular language and the key-id's. For the larger
volumes of review work it's probably better to install the milestone
build twice and add the language pack to one of them. That way both
builds can be run at the same time which saves time.
Please let me know what you all think of the above mentioned things. If
you have any questions or comments, please let me know.
Regards,
Bert Meersma
