Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeoLive translation effort
Hi, Thanks for helping us translate OSGeoLive. Yes, issues regarding OSGeollive needs to be filed using trac. For typos and corrections in the documentation, you can modify the .rst files on GitHub and make a pull request. No need to update the .po files, we will generate them with Sphinx before pushing changes to Transifex. Documentation files should be pretty stable now, only typos and minor fixes. Yes, the deadline is January 3rd for the integration in the ISO, but the online version is updated periodically so you can continue the translation after this date. Ganbatte kudasai !

[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeoLive translation effort
Hello from OSGeoLive team! OSGeoLive 14.0 is aimed to be released at the end of January 2021. We reached alpha2, new projects have been included and documentations updated. We don't expect major changes now in the files except for typos that might be discovered during the translation process. So now is the good moment to help us translate OSGeoLive. And we would like to thank you for that. Hungarian and Spanish are almost complete, German, French and Japanese are very advanced and other languages are making great progress. So thanks to our contributors and translators, please keep the effort. If you want to join the translation effort, it is all done onto the Transifex plateforme: https://www.transifex.com/osgeo/osgeolive You're all welcome.

Dear OSGeoLive users and translators, We are acceding beta stage with OSGEOLive 12.0, right on tracks for FOSS4G. So you can help us translate the documentation before releasing. With the new Transifex process, we choose a goal of all overviews translated in a language for that language to be included in the Live ISO. Please join us at https://www.transifex.com/osgeo/osgeolive/ Available languages: - Spanish - German - French - Hungarian - Italian - Portuguese - Chinese (Taiwan) - Russian - Polish - Bengali - Catalan - Hindi - Dutch - Japanese - Finnish - Greek - Estonian At the moment, only English, Spanish, German and French will be included but you can change that before 2018/08/13 ! And if all overviews are done, help us translate quickstarts of our beloved projects ! Thanks again for your efforts to help us make OSGeoLive a great tool for most.

[OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeoLive Docs] June 2018 news
Hi dear translators and OSGeoLive users, We are proud to announce that we linked the Transifex platform to the Github repository so when when the documentation files will be updated on Github, Transifex will fetch them a few hours later. We are now working integrating the automated documentation building in the OSGeoLive ISO building process and reducing the doc size in order to save space. So that is good news ! We would like to thank you for the work done here and to encourage you continue this work here. Some people have suggested creating local or regional language variants, such as Mexican Spanish (es_MX), and that's great. This was discussed this at our OSGeo-Live PSC weekly meeting, and the general feeling was that while this is something we could tackle later; it is something we probably should postpone until after we have the main languages completed. If you haven't registered to transifex go to: https://www.transifex.com You will find OSGeoLive project here: https://www.transifex.com/osgeo/osgeolive/dashboard/ You need to ask to be a translator on the transifex webpage, or send us an email with your login name so we can send you an invitation Best regards, Vicky Vergara and Nicolas Roelandt for OSGeo-Live translation team ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hi everyone, Last month, I was able to attend the Ubuntu Convention (UbunCon) Europe in Gijon (Spain). There was a lot of very good quality presentation and one catch my attention. This one was made by Nathan Haines about Advocacy for Advocates <https://people.ubuntu.com/~nhaines/documents/events/2018/ubucon-europe/Advocacy%20for%20Advocates.odp> . It is very simple, a few strong word concepts on how to advocate on FOSS. I think it can be interesting for community. Because it is addressing some issues we have, comfort us in some good things we do and it might enlight some things we missed. Nathan was kind enough to give access to his presentation (with notes in the .odp one) [1], so if you can take 5 minutes to read it, please do.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Projects] [OSGeo-Live] Moving to Transifex - step 2 - Battle testing
Hi, Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately, I didn't know about those alternatives (and I presume that the rest of the team too, since no one suggested them). It is also the same bias as github, where everybody knows it so it is also a bit more attractive too people. Some of us also had worked on transifex for other FOSS projects, so we had this knowledge to help us set up the whole process. It is a bit late now to see how it works, ask SAC to provide an instance and test its integration with sphinx. But it will be studied if we plan to leave Transifex in the future.

[OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeo-Live] Moving to Transifex - step 2 - Battle testing
Dear OSGeo members and contributors, We are excited to announce that after many months work, we have set up the Transifex platform to run OSGeo-Live translations [1], and we want help battle testing it in several languages. Transifex will hugely simplify and improve the sustainability of our translation experience (over our previous manual spreadsheet / git / .rst process). It offers machine translation. It provides a review process. It shows us what is changed in the English doc version. It shows translation progress What is involved We describe what to do in our first draft of the translator guide [2]. For testing the infrastructure, translated files are needed. You can translate based on the priority mark, or on the amount of lines to be translated, or complete a translation that someone else started, or start with your own project. Note that we already marked files that don't need translation. Please tell us if the guide makes sense. (The guide is probably more for a reviewer than for a translator.) If the images below don't show in your mail, they are included in our translator guide [2] They are mark with a red >> on the left. Link to image: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/File:OSGEo-Live_transifex_01_index.png After that testing phase, we will work on translating included projects, where people from the projects can help us. Those files generally start by overview-- or quickstart-- and are mark with an orange > Link to image: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/File:OSGEo-Live_transifex_02_second_priority.png The files marked with a green dash don't need to be translated (and would be retired at some point). Link to image: https://wiki.osgeo.org/images/thumb/9/95/OSGEo-Live_transifex_03_retired_files.png/500px-OSGEo-Live_transifex_03_retired_files.png Best way to start is to filter for v11 files and descending priority: Link to image: https://wiki.osgeo.org/images/thumb/3/3c/OSGEo-Live_transifex_04_priority.png/500px-OSGEo-Live_transifex_04_priority.png As you can see on the dashboard [3], we already have 8 languages registered waiting for translators: - finnish - french - german - greek - japanese - polish - spanish - Mexican spanish If you can help us translating those languages, or help us with another, please create an account on transifex and join us. Pro. tip: you can copy/paste translations from current documentation [4] or from github [5] and check whether it still fits in with the string to translate. If you have any question, please join us through the Transifex platform, on IRC or on the OSGeo-Live mailing list [6].
