Hi all -
Follow up on the Edge paper specifically:
https://translate.openstack.org/iteration/view/edge-computing/pot-translation/documents?dswid=-3192
This is now available. As I mentioned on IRC this morning, it should be
VERY close to the PDF. Probably just needs a quick review.
Let me know if I can assist with anything.
Thank you to i18n team for all of your help!!!
Cheers,
Jimmy

Hello,
When I saw overall translation source strings on container
whitepaper, I would infer that new edge computing whitepaper
source strings would include HTML markup tags.
One of the things I discussed with Ian and Frank in Vancouver is the
expense of recreating PDFs with new translations. It's prohibitively
expensive for the Foundation as it requires design resources which we
just don't have. As a result, we created the Containers whitepaper in
HTML, so that it could be easily updated w/o working with outside
design contractors. I indicated that we would also be moving the Edge
paper to HTML so that we could prevent that additional design resource
cost.
On the other hand, the source strings of edge computing whitepaper
which I18n team previously translated do not include HTML markup
tags, since the source strings are based on just text format.
The version that Akihiro put together was based on the Edge PDF, which
we unfortunately didn't have the resources to implement in the same
format.
I really appreciate Akihiro's work on RST-based support on publishing
translated edge computing whitepapers, since
translators do not have to re-translate all the strings.
I would like to second this. It took a lot of initiative to work on
the RST-based translation. At the moment, it's just not usable for
the reasons mentioned above.
On the other hand, it seems that I18n team needs to investigate on
translating similar strings of HTML-based edge computing whitepaper
source strings, which would discourage translators.
Can you expand on this? I'm not entirely clear on why the HTML based
translation is more difficult.
That's my point of view on translating edge computing whitepaper.
For translating container whitepaper, I want to further ask the
followings since *I18n-based tools*
would mean for translators that translators can test and publish
translated whitepapers locally:
- How to build translated container whitepaper using original
Silverstripe-based repository?
https://docs.openstack.org/i18n/latest/tools.html describes well
how to build translated artifacts for RST-based OpenStack repositories
but I could not find the way how to build translated container
whitepaper with translated resources on Zanata.
This is a little tricky. It's possible to set up a local version of
the OpenStack website
(https://github.com/OpenStackweb/openstack-org/blob/master/installation.md).
However, we have to manually ingest the po files as they are completed
and then push them out to production, so that wouldn't do much to help
with your local build. I'm open to suggestions on how we can make
this process easier for the i18n team.
Thank you,
Jimmy
With many thanks,
/Ian

Frank,
I'm sorry to hear about the displeasure around the Edge paper. As
mentioned in a prior thread, the RST format that Akihiro worked did
not work with the Zanata process that we have been using with our
CMS. Additionally, the existing EDGE page is a PDF, so we had to
build a new template to work with the new HTML whitepaper layout we
created for the Containers paper. I outlined this in the thread "
[OpenStack-I18n] [Edge-computing] [Openstack-sigs] Edge Computing
Whitepaper Translation" on 6/25/18 and mentioned we would be ready
with the template around 7/13.
We completed the work on the new whitepaper template and then put
out the pot files on Zanata so we can get the po language files
back. If this process is too cumbersome for the translation team,
I'm open to discussion, but right now our entire translation process
is based on the official OpenStack Docs translation process outlined
by the i18n team:
https://docs.openstack.org/i18n/latest/en_GB/tools.html
Again, I realize Akihiro put in some work on his own proposing the
new translation type. If the i18n team is moving to this format
instead, we can work on redoing our process.
Please let me know if I can clarify further.
Thanks,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,
permission was added for you and Sebastian. The Container
Whitepaper is on the Zanata frontpage now. But we removed Edge
Computing whitepaper last week because there is a kind of
displeasure in the team since the results of translation are still
not published beside Chinese version. It would be nice if we have a
commitment from the Foundation that results are published in a
specific timeframe. This includes your requirements until the
translation should be available.
thx Frank

Sorry, I should have also added... we additionally need
permissions so
that we can add the a new version of the pot file to this project:
https://translate.openstack.org/project/view/edge-computing/versions?dswid=-7835
Thanks!

Hi all -
We have both of the current whitepapers up and available for
translation. Can we promote these on the Zanata homepage?
