Nilamdyuti,
I second your opinion!
But as a work around, before translating any file, do remember to add
a comment in that particular module along with "Reserve for
Translation" action. This will keep you active in Damned Lies!

Thanks Shankar!:-)

Maybe the inactive coordinator (Amitakhya Phukan) can move you to

Hi,
I Nilamdyuti Goswami (user name: ngoswami) started doing
Assamese translation for Gnome UI from Gnome-3-0 and since
Gnome-3-2 I have always maintained the UI status at 80% or
more to make sure it gets released in Assamese. If the git
logs are checked, it will be found that I am the only active
member in the Assamese team who has been sincerely doing UI
translations for the past two years. After Gnome-3-8 was
released with 86% UI translation status for Assamese, I didn't
immediately start working on Gnome-3-10 as it's status was
also more than 80% (something like 85% if I correctly
remember). I just kept the master branches updated from time
to time and later on I kept it on hold for some time. Now,
since Gnome-3-10 release date is approaching, I thought of
updating the important packages. Although even if I don't do
so, it will still get released in Assamese as the status was
80% when I started updating and presently it is 81%. Now, my
question is why does Damned Lies shows an active member as
inactive considering a very short inactivity time? What will a
new translator who is keen on joining the Assamese translation
team think when he visits the team page? Will not he think
that there hasn't been any activity in the Assamese
translation for Gnome since time immemorial? :-) Suddenly his
love for his mother tongue will come into life and he will
think about reviving a already active team (I don't know about
others, at least I am doing my part, this is open source, we
cannot force someone to work! :-) ) If some old mail threads
are checked it will be found that a similar incident happened
to the Marathi translation team. The team coordinator for
Marathi had to list down the package names to which he had
recently made commits and provide some other links to prove
the new guy that he his active and that the new guy was
misleaded. A bug was also filed in this context for Kannada
translation team:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701190
So, what I feel is that Damned Lies should not show an active
member as inactive so quickly. Moreover, when clicked on the
member's name in the translation team page, the member's
contributions should also be shown in whatever convenient
manner possible instead of just showing the "Team Membership".
I am not saying that it should show the member's entire git
log! :-) but at least it can show the releases to which the
member has contributed. This will avoid a newbie from getting
misleaded and get in touch with the right person to start
contributing.

Nilamdyuti Goswami

Gtk+ statistics doesn't get updated in damned lies
Hi, I pushed Assamese translations for Gtk+ UI and Gtk+ property nicks to both master and gnome-3-8 branches. The statistics for the both the domains and for both the branches are showing 100% in https://l10n.gnome.org/module/Gtk+/ but in damned lies the statistics doesn't get updated whereas for other packages it gets updated as soon as translation is pushed to git. Can anyone have a look at it? Regards, Nilamdyuti Goswami ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
Request for Assamese language team coordinatorship
Hi Amit, It's absolutely fine with me of you being the coordinator but it is better to set some work flow so that we don't have to block things on you when we are near a deadline. This time I had to get the files committed via other teams. Also, as per Claude's recommendation I had requested for a GNOME account and have got it last month.

Request for Assamese language team coordinatorship
Hello, I would like to propose myself as the new coordinator of Assamese language team since the current coordinator has been unable to help out with translation and coordination tasks. I have been working for Gnome Assamese translation since version 3.0 and had to rely on other translation teams for getting the translation committed (ref: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=659595). As suggested by Claude, I am writing in to request the change in coordinatorship if the current coordinator would like to hand it over. Kindly, also let me know any further formalities are required from my end to go forward with this request.
