What do I have to do so that my cvsl10n request is approved ?
I've translated the fedoraproject.org website and it's been about 3-4
days since I submitted my request.

gdm language list and locale setting
by Miloš Komarčević
Does anyone know where the gdm login screen pulls the language list
from (full name), and from which list is the locale set for the
session?
I couldn't figure it out so far, I think it used to be in the gdm
source tarball, but not any more it seems...
Need to file a bug, just want to know the right address.
Thanks,
Miloš

duplicate language?
by Mikel Pascual
Hi,
I just started translating anaconda to basque (eu), and tried the
system with a few translated strings.
I found that basque shows in eu and eu_ES, but I could only submit
anaconda for eu_ES. Also, when installing fedora, I could choose
between eu_ES, eu_FR... but I couldn't choose just eu.
In fact, there are a lot of basque "flavours", but there's a
"homologated" version, which tries to tie them together. That is eu,
and that's the one we usually translate for.
Although beeing a bit different, it'd be the case of spanish (es).
There's a somewhat standard es, and there are es_ES, es_AR, es_CO,...
but they can simply translate for es, and they can simply choose es
language.
So, the logical way would be only having the eu option on
installation, and translating for eu.
How can we do this?

Bugs - Fedora Translations!
by Ankit Patel
Hi everyone,
I have noticed that some of the Fedora packages don't show the
translations in GUI even though they were translated. (e.g smolt - a
hardware profiler displayed during firstboot screen doesn't appear in
kn_IN, even though it's translated completely - bug 474131, 474292)...
There could be some other packages too, which are translated in your
language for Fedora 10 but not showing up the translations in GUI.
I think, the translations do for Fedora is worth, only when it reaches
to the end users and consumed by them. So, to ensure that the
translations reaches to the end users, we need to have this testing/QA
phase.
I know that the QA activities are generally held pre-release. We could
try get it done from next release. But this one is important & it could
be called "post-release QA activity"! :)
Hence, I would like to encourage all translators to check the Fedora 10
applications they have translated in their own language and file bugs
accordingly if required! I can see some of the language maintainers
already started doing so! Thanks to all of them for taking such initiatives!
Thanks!

Election Town Halls
by Matt Domsch
When setting up the upcoming elections, based on participant requests,
I announced we would have some IRC Town Halls, for each of the groups
being elected, between Thursday December 4 and Saturday December 6.
I'd like to propose each group have at least one, and if the group so
wishes, two, such town halls. If two, schedule them at somewhat
opposite times of day to allow greatest community participation in at
least one.
Schedule: non-overlapping, first-come-first-serve by the groups. I've
put up a placeholder schedule for the Board town halls, subject to
revision based on availability of the nominees.
Committee chairs: please discuss with your nominees the best times
they are available, and schedule on the wiki page [1] accordingly.
Moderators: consider this a call for moderators. If you would like to
moderate one or more sessions, please contact me directly. Moderators
will take questions from the -public IRC channel, ask them in the
-townhall channel, and try to keep the conversations on topic.
I've set up two IRC rooms on FreeNode:
#fedora-townhall - moderator and those running for election may speak,
anyone else can read.
#fedora-townhall-public - anyone can speak. Questions asked here may
be presented by the moderator in
#fedora-townhall.
Comments?
(all current nominees have been bcc'd)
Thanks,
Matt
