Hi Fedora translators!

Hi Petr,
Mapping for es:es-ES seems fine.
To reduce maintenance burden on the Fedora guide owners, I'd like to come
up with a sort of canonical mapping list that could be shared between
multiple guides, branches and repositories.

As per BCP 47, I would again like to propose dropping the region codes
altogether unless they are absolutely needed for regional
differentiation (pt-BR vs. pt-PL etc.), as many languages span country
borders. From [1]:

On another note, I was wondering what is Fedora translators' opinion on
not publishing docs translations that are below a certain threshold level,
say 15% or 25%?
I realized it would be worth asking you translators while I was working on
updating POT files and syncing translations for the Deployment Guide, since
the most complete translation for this guide is currently at ca. 10%.
I know that translators can publish their translated documents themselves,
if they want to and have been added to the right permission group,
anyway. I'm however not sure how many people in the Fedora translation teams
actually do this.
I'm CC'ing the Fedora docs list on this message.
Before the transition to
tx.net we (the translation teams) were able to
publish our translated versions of the guides. Perhaps this still is the
best way for ease everyone's work, and in addition each team may use its
own criteria on how and when to publish the guides. Eric made a wiki
page in order to visualize which team is publishing [2].
If we want to keep working like this in
tx.net, we may need updated
instructions here [3], and a link to the proper git repository in each
guide on
tx.net to now from where to clone it.
I remember Kevin offered himself to publish guides for any team that
needed it, and of course you can count with me too.
