Hello,
in the past I used this status page for seeing how far the translation is: http://i18n.redhat.com/cgi-bin/i18n-status
But now I found this page: http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages/de/fedora-8
The confusing is, that the satuses are completely different. Example: the package policycoreutils in the German language seems to be finished in the first table, but in the other one, it's just finished to 62%. In my copy of the CVS-Directory it's finished. Witch one is the correct one? Why are there two lists? In the second list there are many 'Error-Symbols' - why this?
Greeting, Michi

Hi,
i18n.redhat.com is going to be obsolete soon, once translate.fedoraproject.org becomes stable. Dimtris & his team is working on the translate.fedoraproject.org & they are making the better infrastructure for fedora translators. Please go through the mail archieves, you will get the idea about it.
Btw, for the time being consider i18n.redhat.com for your status checking...More information can be found once you go through the mail archieves.

Problem for us as translators is that its "going to be obsolete soon", but we are interested in current status and the places where we really should translate. If I translate e.g. smolt that in in i18n, is that the right place, when smolt is also in hg.fedoraproject.org?
Next confusion: Why every project has different repository type on fedoraproject - one is snv, other hg and finaly some uses git. How do I get access to all of those? I even do not know how to work with all those tools. Imagine I am not very technicaly skilled but want to get the .po file, translate and submit. That's what I can. I hardly learned cvs, now what's the hg?
That's why I am confused too..

Dimitris is installing transifex, a system for commiting translations using a web interface, so we translators don't have to manage different version control systems. But unfortunatel it is not ready, and for those systems where translators can't get access, you have to send the po file as a patch/bug to the project. Take a look at:
http://translate.fedoraproject.org/module/
Personally, I'm dissapointed that developers are moving translations from i18n to other hosts, because if we don't have commit access on the new host, then we must rely on developers to commit translations, and from my past experience translations remain on bugzillas/patch trackers for months without being commited. I've sent a patch with the Catalan yum translation and it's not been commited yet.
Anyway, why the move from i18n to other hosts wasn't scheduled after implementing transifex and after translation freeze, i,.e. post fc8?
Regards!
