Some changes in master
by Paul W. Frields
With the advice and assistance of Sijis and Mo, I committed some
changes in to the 'master' branch, specifically to the about-fedora
page. Here's a summary of what I did:
* Simplified the language somewhat. What was there was a completely
accurate copy of our wiki, but given the general website is going to
be read by lots of people not familiar with our project, I tried to
make the text very approachable.
* At first I removed the four foundations because it seemed like
overkill to me -- but Mo helpfully reminded me that these are landing
spots for the index.html page's links to those foundations. So again,
I simplified the text somewhat to make it easier to understand.
* I provided template markup for everything, but I hope anyone will
feel free to double-check my work! :-)
What I *didn't* do is to create new POT and merge the existing PO
files. I didn't do this because before we make the translators go any
further, I wanted the Websites team to be in agreement with these text
changes. (If they don't meet with approval, it's easy to revert them!)
So what has to happen is:
* Approval of changes
* Notify L10n we're going to change POT and make sure no one reacts
really negatively
* Build POT, merge PO and push

Creating a new ticket is impossible because registering a new user is impossible
by Geoffrey
Hi,
On the bottom of this page:
https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/
it says:
Problems?
* ...
* Create a new ticket
Which links to this page:
https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/newticket
Where I get:
TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation
Which is probably because I am not logged in.
But I cannot register as a new user, so I cannot log in, so I cannot
create a new issue.
After some digging around, I only found this e-mail to contact, could
you please forward this to the correct person?
PS, here are the issues/tickets I want to create:
- [Bug] On Windows Vista the liveusb-creator does not work if you do not
"run it as administrator" and there is no indication that you should
"run it as administrator"
- [Improvement] Please provide a tar.gz with an u+x file (for example an
sh script) that runs on any linux (including specifically Ubuntu Linux),
not just the source because building from source hardly ever works on a
random distro (pyton dependencies and whatnot missing)
- [Wish] Provide a .deb for Ubuntu Linux to facilitate people moving
from Ubuntu to Fedora

'100%' is causing problems with translation
by Ville-Pekka Vainio
Hi websites people,
I've been translating the new website and I noticed the phrase '100%' is
used in a few places. This seems to cause problems with translation. If
I leave it out completely, 'msgfmt -cvo /dev/null file.po' says "number
of format specifications in 'msgid' and 'msgstr' does not match". If I
use '100%%' in the translation, I get the same error. If I just use
'100%', msgfmt says "'msgstr' is not a valid Python format string,
unlike 'msgid'. Reason: In the directive number 1, the character 'v' is
not a valid conversion specifier.", where the character is whatever
happens to be after '100%'.
I think '100%' should be replaced with an English word which wouldn't
cause these problems.

FP Redesign
by Sijis Aviles
All,
I've merged the fpo-redesign (and f14-beta) branch to master. Any further
changes should be done in master branch for the redesign project.
Staging (stg.fedoraproject.org) has been updated to pull from the correct
branch.
Also.. because of all these changes fedoracommunity.org new site will be
published live shortly.
If there are any issues, let us know.
Thanks,
Sijis

Idea for Fedora
by Angel Dimitrov
Hello,
I can make some 3d graphics for your Fedora homepage. Look at this example.
I made it in my break time. If I spend more time working on such project, I
will make it even better. The Fedora home page can be improved
significantly, definitely.
Best regards,

Problems with the Hebrew translation of spins.fedoraproject.org
by Elad
Hello all.
While testing the Hebrew translation of spins.fedoraproject.org I've
encountered many problems, most of them are related to the fact that
Hebrew is an RTL language (written from right to left).
1. when selecting he (language code for Hebrew) in the language
selection menu and clicking OK, i get this page:
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/?lang=he and it shows the English
version of the site. the only way for a user to see the Hebrew version
of the site is manually changing the URL to:
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/he/
2. the slogans of the spins showed in the main page appear
untranslated, but if you click on a spin (eg. design) you can see the
slogan translated.
3. the big download button in the right side of the screen ("Download
Now!") is untranslated. but the small download buttons, in the
download tab of each spins, which has the same text, are translated.
4. the Fedora Spins logo appears on the navigation menu. i think the
menu layout should be the same for Hebrew and English (move the logo
back to it's original place, don't move the menu), but it will look
nicer if those small icons near the navigation links would be on the
left side of the link, and not the right side.
please fix those problems.
thanks.
