Arabic is ready for FC3
by Mohamed Eldesoky
>From looking to this link, we can see that almost all of the needed modules
are done !
http://elvis.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status?page=status&branch=HEAD&local...
:-)
Waiting for your Basem to make Anaconda really Arabic enabled.
But I think we should work fast, I think if we didn't catch any of the test
releases of Fedora, we have no chance to see it in the FC3
Sherif, your update !

firstboot

I have finished with rhgb, Munzir, please do the usual QA.
I am taking firstboot
ps, debug ??
What should it be translated to ??
Sometimes I have seen
إزالة العلل
And other times I see
تنقيح
I think the second one is more appealing !!
But what I think shouldn't be the right thing !!

by Basem Narmok
Salam all,
This email to keepup with me -I may need some help- What am doing now:
* fixing RTL issues in Anaconda:
1- The Next - Prev buttons -in English ( <- -> ) in Arabic ( -> <-
)
[FIXED]
2- Text installation no RTL
[Working on it: am trying to use bicon from Arabeyes, new RPM for
it, included in the instroot image ...]
(I need your feedback on this issue, I will provide a link to
download bicon rpm after uploading it)
3- some other graphical issues
4- shortcuts in Arabic
Note: after doing (1,3) I will post a patch to anaconda-devel-list -
Insha Allah-, *screenshots* in the way too.
* The translation:
Am facing some problems concerning cvs connection after public-key change.
[Sarah helps me in this issue, Thank you Sarah]
Salam

Towards a better consistent translation...
by Munzir Taha
My previous experience in translations is very fruitful to me. Many of the
things which I haven't been able to take a decision about have been clear to
me now.
I made my choices of what's the best way to handle many issues. I would like
to discuss these things here if you don't mind changing what have been stated
before.
First, we agree together that our role is to provide quality and consistent
translation, right?
Consistency is the point I want to stress here.
I will begin with acronyms. I am strongly in favor of leaving those as they
are without trying to type them in Arabic letters. KDE should never be
translated as كي دي إي nor as كيدي. ِA professional translator in our team,
alhadi, has mentioned that official and certified translation deal with them
like this. He mentioned a lot of stuff regarding United Nations translation
standard (IIRC).
see the botton of this page, please:
http://translate.sourceforge.net/doc/translation-new-words
Transliteration will get the translators in problems regarding how is it
pronounced and space issues. The first will carry a lot of unnecessary
discussion of what's the correct pronounciation and the lator would force the
translator to know the context and decide whether the space allowed for the
msgstr will suffice. Besides being difficult, it would cause inconsistency
which is very bad and unprofessional.
Let's see to which extent we can agree ;)

Place for Reviews & Docs
by Sherif Abdelgawad
I am offering a host for having the needed
place to hold WIKI, BLog & Documentation.
I did upload the PO files mapping the current
CVS with all the translated PO files to-date.
For the people who does not know how to check
out files from CVS, and only interested to
review the translation. Please have a look
at :
http://www.arabic-fedora.org/index.php?option=com_docman&Itemid=40
You will find a section for "Fedora Core PO Files".
You can review the files there, you can upload new
files, documents related to any discussions or suggestions.
We can maintain WIKI & Document Management over there for
any reviews. I also had a rating system so people
can rate certain work.
Let me know if this something might ease the work
here, or you would like to use some other method.
I am just offering this from my person view to
get things done, and as I had the space and
the site for some other project (which yet
I did not lunch), but thought of using it now.
Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks

Vote!!! Which translation is better..
by maha helwa
Helloo All..
It seems this translation is not an easy thing to do at all.. i need your
opinion in what i find out..
First.. some words was strange or confusing me.. like these:
>"Directories","ÇáÃÏáøÉ".. I guess: "ãÌáÏÇÊ" is much better and meaningful.
>"Virtual Host", "ãÖíÝ æåãíø"
my guess: "ÇáãÖíÝ ÇáÇÝÊÑÇÖì"
>"Logging","ÇáÊøÓÌíá".. There won't be a difference between this word and
"Registration", could it be another word something like ÇáÏÎæá ?!
>'Options','ÎíÇÑÇÊ'
ÎíÇÑÇÊ or ÇÎÊíÇÑÇÊ ..it's fine but Id like to know if there is a
difference.
>"Default": "ÅÝÊÑÇÖì" or "ÅÚÊíÇÏì" which better!!
>"Error Code": ÑãÒ ÇáÎØà or "ßæÏ ÎÇØÆ"
>Site Configuration: "ÊåíÆÉ ÇáãæÞÚ" or ÅÚÏÇÏ ÇáãæÞÚ
>"Configuration File": ãáÝ ÇáÊøåíÆÉ or "ãáÝ ÇáÅÚÏÇÏ"
>'Password': 'ßáãÉ ãÑæÑ' ..i guess "ßáãÉ ÓÑ" much better..
Second the sentences itself.. some lost the whole meaning. I modified some
sentence. And would like to know your feedback which better: (Vote)
> The configuration file has been manually modified. Overwrite?:
1. ãáÝ ÇáÊøåíÆÉ Êãø ÊÚÏíáå íÏæíøÇð. åá ÃßÊÈ Úáíå¿"
2. áÞÏ Êã ÊÛííÑ ãáÝ ÇáÅÚÏÇÏ åáì ÊÑíÏ ÍÐÝ ÇáãáÝ ÇáÞÏíã ¿
> The Edit an existing alias for the hostname:\n:
1. ÚÏøá ÇÓãÇð ÈÏíáÇð ãÓÈÞ ááãÖíÝ:\n
2.\n:ÚÏá ÇÓã ÇáÈÏíá ÇáÍÇáì ááãÖíÝ¿
> Edit an existing alias::
1. "ÚÏøá ÇÓãÇð ÈÏíáÇð ãÓÈÞ:"
2. ÚÏøá ÇáÇÓã ÇáÈÏíá ÇáÍÇáí
>"A directory named %s already exists."
1."åäÇß Ïáíá ÇÓãå %s ãæÌæÏ ãÓÈÞÇð."
2." %s ÓÈÞ æÌæÏ åÐÇ ÇáãÌáÏ ÈåÐÇ ÇáÅÓã "
3."ãæÌæÏ ãÓÈÞÇð %s åÐÇ ÇáãÌáÏ "
>"Only absolute directories are allowed.":
1. "ÇáÃÏáøÉ ÇáãØáÞÉ ÝÞØ åí ÇáãÓãæÍÉ.
2.ãÓãæÍ ÝÞØ ÈÇáãÌáÏÇÊ ÐÇÊ ÇáãÓÇÑ ÇáßÇãá"
Thats just a sample.. still the rest of the file didnt finish it
But we have to settle a way to decide which most translation is most
properly translated without losing its meaning.. the whole context
meaning.!..
Dont know if we did Voting on the available translations and then the
highest score is the right one. Lets try it as beginning, and if someone
else have better idea ..let us know!!
Ill tell you the rest when I finish this file. Insha2 ALLAH.
BR,
Maha.
