Re: Tx duplicate teams removal

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi.

This is to remind you about one week there's left for the L10N teams coordinators to sync the four-letter and the two-letter resources before the duplicate teams get removed from Transifex.

The transifex-client package to give the coordinators ability to remove the duplicate groups one by one isn't ready. AFAIK, most L10N teams coordinators have no *write* access to the duplicate teams because they have never been granted the coordinatorship. That means, should the tx-client package have arrived by August 15th, it would be useless without the project maintainers still involved. So let's just stick with the current deadline and then we can ask the project maintainers to remove all the duplicate teams at once.

According to the thread discussion, the following teams are to be REMOVED:
  as_IN
  bg_BG
  bs_BA
  ca_ES
  cz_CZ
  da_DK
  de_DE
  el_GR
  fa_IR
  fi_FI
  fr_FR
  gu_IN
  he_IL
  hi_IN
  hr_HR
  hu_HU
  id_ID
  is_IS
  it_IT
  jp_JP
  kn_IN
  ko_KR
  lt_LT
  lv_LV
  ml_IN
  ms_MY
  nb_NO
  nl_NL
  or_IN
  pa_IN
  pl_PL
  ru_RU
  sr_RS
  sr_RS@latin
  sk_SK
  sv_SE
  ta_IN
  te_IN
  uk_UA
  vi_VN

The following teams are to be LEFT INTACT:
  bn_IN (is different from bn)
  zh_CN (as opposed to zh_TW and zh_HK)

I hereby include the original message in case someone has been on vacation and missed it. There are step-by-step instructions given.

> From what requires action, the duplicate resources named as regional codes (like ru_RU or es_ES) hold our previous work. While the resources named as language identifiers (like ru or es) are out of sync or contain empty translations. It means that the project translators would lose progress if the project maintainers kill the duplicates now. The progressed modules need to be merged in the right place, where these would be available to the teams members afterwards. This is to be done by the l10n coordinators.

> There's also a deadline to be set so we don't make the cleanup an endless process. August 15th, 2011, seems to be enough, in case someone's on vacation. That's 2 weeks before the docs translation period starts and about 1.5 month from now. Then we may ask the project maintainers to run a script to remove all those language resources.

> The merging task can be accomplished by using the Transifex-client tool available in Fedora repository. You will need the language remapping capability introduced in version 0.5.2, which is currently in the testing repo. To use now, run:
> su -c "yum install transifex-client --enablerepo=*testing"
> or update using the testing repo:
> su -c "yum update transifex-client --enablerepo=*testing"
>
> Please give the package transifex-client-0.5.2-1.fc15.noarch [1] good karma so it would land in the stable repo soon.

> The procedure has been summarized before [3], there's also a complete manual to the tool [4]. It took me less time because I only downloaded one language I wanted. For instance, to update the Virtualization Guide I did:
>
> 1. configure the tool to use the chosen resource:
>   a. create a folder, say, "transifex" in the home dir and cd into it
>   b. [misha@pc transifex] $ tx init
>   c. [misha@pc transifex] $ tx set --auto-remote https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora-virtualization-guide/
>
> 2. pull the "ru_RU" translation modules:
>   a. [misha@pc transifex] $ tx pull -l ru_RU
>
> 3. use language remapping to push the modules as "ru":
>   a. remap the language by adding the line "lang_map = ru:ru_RU" to the main section of ~/transifex/.tx/config [5]
>   b. [misha@pc transifex] $ tx push --translations -l ru
>
> 4. delete the local files
>
> You may be able to do the whole docs collection at once using
> $ tx set --auto-remote https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/fedora/r/fedora-15-docs/
