More modules on transifex
by Dimitris Glezos
Hi all.
I've added some more non-CVS modules on transifex, which seem to be
working properly:
http://publictest5.fedora.redhat.com/submit/module/
Next will be:
1. system-config-printer and yumex, after I fix something on our svn
modules which have non-default branches
2. The OLPC modules -- hopefully tonight.
3. Docs -- just because we can.
Anything else I forgot?

direction here?
1. Is there any module still left in elivis?
2. How to contribute modules moved to fedoraporject.org?
2.3. Accounts for Documentation
No big change here. Only needs proofreading and give a little addition.
All information can be found at the page of

Easy to start, anyone interest?
3. Translating Software
Need information about Transifex tool from the side of translators.
How to use the tool, how to access repo, etc.

Seems compact and good starter, anyone thirsty?

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2007-June/msg00096.html.
Anyone who has interest to WRITE? it must be ideal starter for
translator who wants to be a writer but never try :)

Release Notes for F8 - first POT drop
by Paul W. Frields
Greetings L10N folk!
Due to scarce personnel resources we are running a couple of days behind
our schedule[1] for the Docs Project. However, I am getting the Release
Notes ready for a POT drop today. Although the schedule currently has a
"deadline" of 23 September, we will be extending this until about 26
September (2007-09-26).
However, please keep in mind that your team does *NOT* need to complete
ALL work by that date. Due to last-minute bug fixes and other errata,
you can expect a few string changes over the next few weeks, although we
will strive to keep them to an absolute minimum. You will need to
complete all work by the listed date of 21 October (2007-10-21), subject
to change if there are slips affecting the overall release schedule[2].
In the past we have included only finished release notes in the test3
release of Fedora, but that will NOT be the case for F8 test3. Any team
that works on their release notes translation will have their work
included in F8 test3. We would still like to include only finished
translations in the final version to emphasize the professional polish
of the distribution, but since I now have greater access to the
fedora-release-notes package in the distribution, we will be more able
to bring an update package into Fedora 8 during its cycle if additional
languages are finished by some deadline date on which we can jointly
agree.
Reminder: the full fedora-release-notes package includes material from
the following modules:
* release-notes
* homepage
* about-fedora <-- (Almost no changes since F7)
* readme
* readme-live-image
* readme-burning-isos <-- (Almost no changes since F7)
For the best locale representation, make sure you visit each of these
modules for updates. Also, please remember to check that the po/LINGUAS
file in each module is updated to include your locale, so it will be
built by our tools! Thanks to everyone for your great work, it's a
pleasure to work with you. If you have any problems, please contact us
at fedora-docs-list.

Translation section in Fedora Release Notes
by Dimitris Glezos
Hi all.
There's this idea floating in my head that we could have a section on
Languages and Localization in the Release Notes.
Some of the stuff we could mention are:
1. Number of languages Fedora is available at. For this we could
take for example central modules like Anaconda, firstboot, etc
and count languages with coverage above, say, 70%?
2. Updates from the formed localization teams. Eg. "New translation
teams formed in this release include: a, b, c...
3. Updates on our toolchain that affected the release
This could fit in the I18n beat as a "Language coverage" section. What
do you think? What else could we have there?

While my vote probably shouldn't explicitly count, I think that this
makes sense to pull in just because we really do want people to be aware
of the risk. And also, we'll be building anaconda with new translations
until far later than most things

Default console font
by Alexandru Szasz
Hello,
I don't know if this is the right place to pop this question, but
maybe some of you translators know something about it.
I'm translating in Romanian and the default console font does not
include all the characters I need to display correctly the romanian
language.
Is there a possibility to change the default language code according
to the language ?
The default latarcyrheb-sun16 does not include the following symbols I need:
șțȘȚ and " which is replaced by " in latarcyrheb-sun16. Similar but
not quite the same.
I found that the font LatArCyrHeb-16.psfu does include them.
