Re: Question regarding entering translation bugs in Bugzilla
That's just great! We've started filing bugs in Bugzilla. You'll see more of them as we continue on our QA.

Translation bugs are always welcome to the Korean team. The l10n bugs are forwarded to our mailing list. But when a bug is not obvious and when it goes to the long discussion, sometimes on translation policies, I guess the discussion is going to be in our mailing list, not in the bugzilla. Well, the bugzilla is another language barrier to most Korean users and contributors. ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

I think it would be excellent if you could provide such feedback via bugzilla.gnome.org. We've set up the language components in the l10n product exactly for this purpose; to allow for a unified and coherent way of entering translation bugs, regardless of language. As all language groups are supposed to deal with any bugs for their language that may get submitted through bugzilla.gnome.org, I see no problem at all with this approach. Thanks, Christian That's great. I wanted to check with the community first that entering translation bugs in Bugzilla was okay. We'll do that.

Re: How can I join a translation team ?
Hi Christian, Every language team is allowed to have its own process, if in doubt please ask the team coordinator about the process in that team. [snip] Nevertheless, if you should find that you are unable to get any response at all from the Korean team coordinator, please let us know, so that we may resolve the team coordinatorship issue somehow. I got a response from a member in the Korean community today. I'll work with him. Thanks, Young ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

[Changed the subject line to be more general] First of all, thanks for the responses on this topic. Clytie Siddall wrote On 04/20/06 00:21,: The only reason we're not saying, 'Just dive in and start translating! is that we don't want you to waste your effort. You could end up spending time translating something that someone else has already done, or partly done. I would like to avoid this situation, too. I first asked for pointers to a glossary and any type of translation guidelines that I need to follow in order to get started. One useful guide at this stage is the amount of progress on the status pages for your language. If llittle or no change has occurred there since you said you were willing to translate, then there's probably little risk that your translation time would be wasted. You could probably start translating, and by the time you've finished some files, there would be definite news on your status, and others could review and commit those files for you. I'm not entirely sure about the procedure in these cases (which I know our coordinators always follow carefully). Do we have it online anywhere, so people can understand how it works? Yes, that's what I'd like to know. I see po files that have partial Korean translations in them. Do I simply make a copy of the file and return the fully translated file to the coordinator for the file to be committed? I'm not sure about the process. But undoubtedly, our co-ordinators will get back to you soon, with definite information on the status of your team, and what you can most usefully do at this stage. I'd prefer to wait until communication is established with the coordinator or the language (i.e. Korean) group before I start putting time on it. NEVER think you're not welcome around here. We value your contribution very much. :) Thanks for the response.

Want to join Korean translation project
Hi, I sent an email to the Korean translation team lead and haven't gotten a response. I hope other members of Korean team are subscribed to this mailing address and let me know how to get started.

Re: Gnome2 User Guide: translate it!
Is there something I can help in regards to the Sun translations mentioned? I'm in the Globalization group that provided the translations.

Yeah, right :) Note that docs are not in the string freeze, and our docs team is rocking in this cycle, so yes, User Guide is still pretty much changing (and, you'll see that changing as well, since the stats page is updated several times a day). However, whoever dares to tackle the user guide for their own language will help the docs team as well: you'll probably notice typos and other things by being what we, translators, usually are: proofreaders of English text throughout Gnome :) Also, there are some old Sun-contributed translations which need migrating (contacting Luca Feretti, who did Italian migration, might be a good idea: he at least knows on which revision of the master files was Italian translation based, and it might be the same one for other languages :).
