I just wanted to clarify a couple of points: 1. Localisation teams will still exist in an ecosystem along side the development, design, marketing groups. All communications in these groups will be in native languages, but others can also contribute to them using auto-translations. Not ideal, but we don't have enough translators to get them to translate every conversation on the site. This is where you are mistaken, this is not about localization, it's about native language. No localization in these groups is needed concerning their work on their sites. No Google translation, no Drupal translation, no Pootle translation. 2. As mentioned before the main site will be structured the same way for all languages. English is not the default translate to-from language, it is the simply the fallback if a translation is not available. No, each language will structure their site as they want. And English is not a fall back. If the page doesn't exist in the given language of the site, it doesn't exist at all on any the site. ie. if someone in china accesses a page originally written in french with no other translations available it will display in french. It's completely stupid, sorry for that. The content of this page may have absolutely no relevance for the Chinese Group, why should they have our shop pages displayed. Another example, why should you display the German page about their Box? it only is relevant for the German Group. Each language group has its own life and is not shared by the others every time. We are not cloned. If an english translation is available it will display in english. And it's not acceptable for a sake of quality. It will give a very poor image of our groups. If there is a chinese translation available it will display in chinese. Really irrelevant. In terms of the Q&A section, I would expect that there will be a knowledge base of manually translated questions and answers along side an ad-hoc section which would be automatically translated. Quality ad-hoc questions when answered could be moved to the knowledge base section then manually translated for accuracy. The concept is fluid at the moment, so if you would like to see any other features please let us know. Again, the QA team are used to work together, so don't put constraints where they are not needed. Currently, all this has my absolute veto. Kind regards Sophie --- Founding member of The Document Foundation Sorry I am just chippin in with no background on the conversation aside from the content of this email and the title. Sophie, perhaps you want to add how would it work best instead of just saying is not good. Also from your comments it seems we should just have separate vhosts for each Language. That way it will be completely separate. I actually have been asking for this since forever, of course the best way was just going ahead and doing it ourselves instead of trying to convince an admin. But having VPS where we can generate our own site using our preferred language and technology was a solution for many of our needs that we had in the past. Of course this is taking it a bit to the extreme. But I wonder what would be the argument for not doing this. I can think of a nightmare to admin +/-72 different VPS but I also can see the benefit of having our own selection of technologies to use. -- Alexandro Colorado OOoES A.C - http://oooes.org GPG: 68D072E6 -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org List archive: http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/website/ *** All posts to this list are publicly archived for eternity ***

As for the download page, as well as tackling the SilverStripe page it might be good to get involved with the Drupal based website that will replace the test.libreoffice.org site early next year.

So he would need an account for EN and for JA. Then he will get notified changes of EN and apply them to JA. The issue is that well, every single language will need to do this. With the script I publish here, he dont need to duplicate accounts to keep track. At least that's what I understood from his original request. Another option is to have a feed from the EN version of silverstripe so all the new content can be read either through RSS or simple XML/HTML or be emailed to a list like this one. So all updates to the EN site can be public without needing an account. > > Cheers > Erich > > -- > Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org > Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette > List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ > All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be > deleted > > -- *Alexandro Colorado* *OpenOffice.org* Español http://es.openoffice.org -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to website+h...@libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/website/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
