Could you mind to clarify this? They are the same machine. We are moving to using 'fedoraproject.org' instead of 'fedora.redhat.com' by convention. > o For "2.3.

The author can use this page as a source for instructions: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/WikiEditing The first question addresses how to get an account. I recommend using that information, then linking to the WikiEditing page from the trans-q-s-g for any other questions. > o For publishing process, does the translator need to obtain the account > of wiki-edit for adding the translation into Publish Que? If so then, > the instruction of wiki-edit account may also be needed to add? The PublishQueue page is a short-term work around until the content management system (CMS) is ready. The CMS lets us have a workflow of author/translate <-> edit -> publish, all through a single system. I do not think we can continue to use this work around with many thousands of translators. :) This is one reason why it is highly important to get translation CVS moved to cvs.fedoraproject.org, so we can use your existing processes and tools. Currently, when translating documentation or strings from software, how does each language team: 1. Have another translator approve/agree that the translation is accurate? 2. Signal that the translation is accurate and ready to be incorporated back into the software package? To get back to your specific question -- right now, yes, a translator who is working in cvs.fedoraproject.org/cvs/docs needs to edit that Wiki page when a document is ready for publishing. Fortunately, getting Wiki edit privileges is the easy part, once the CLA is signed and the CVS account is obtained, anyone with a Wiki edit account can put the new person in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EditGroup. Can you add this to your bug report so the step can be added/explained more in the trans-q-s-g?
