Ubuntu Translations Meeting on Thursday
Hi translators, I'd like to propose the next Ubuntu Translations meeting: * this Thursday, the 25th of February * at 16:00 UTC * on #ubuntu-meeting Here's the agenda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Meetings/2010-02-25 The part I'd be most interested in is in discussing the policy changes in the Ubuntu Translations project and the documentation of best practices. While they won't directly affect the everyday workflow, the new policies constitute an important change in the project, so I'd like to ask all of you who can attend to participate in this particular meeting, so we can get as much feedback and consensus as possible. I'd also welcome the feedback on the mailing list in case you cannot attend or simply want to leave it here. Here's some more info: Ubuntu Translations Policies You'll find them here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase#Policies I've been conscious to focus on only a small, but important number of policies. In each of them, I've also tried to keep them short and concise, while taking into account the feedback from the UDS discussion and from past input from the mailing list and meetings. The idea is to provide more structure to the Ubuntu translations process, but not too much to burden contributors with bureaucracy and such. The main changes will be: * We'll require all translation teams to have guidelines * We'll require all translation team coordinators to subscribe to the mailing list * We'll require all translation teams to have a Moderated or Restricted subscription policy Ubuntu Translations best practices -- I'm still working on these, and you'll find the current status here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase#Guidelines In the next few days I might be asking some more feedback to teams to hear how they work and to see if other teams can benefit from the shared practices. Thanks!

Please give > some update on this :) > They will be used, it's just that since they are not included in language packs (the translations on the CD need to be available before language packs can be used during installation), you won't see automatic updates of the translations during the development cycle. The developers do export the translations from Launchpad from time to time, so it is just a matter of time until they are included. If not, just ask again here or file a bug requesting the export against the debian-installer package [1] Note that as an exception to other packages, on debian-installer the upstream translations take precedence even if the translation in Launchpad has been explicitly changed, so if you've got fixes done in Launchpad, you'll have to coordinate with the Debian translation team for your language to see them in Ubuntu. You'll find more info about the reasons behind this here [2] Regards, David.

Debian-installer redux
Hi everyone! I know there are lot of emails with answers floatin around in this list archive, but as it is changing subject, I will ask again. I have debian-installer and debian-installer-help translated for Lucid in LP. Will they be used for Lucid LTS? If no, why not? Please give some update on this :) Cheers, Peter. -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators
