Heya! Short summary: Discussing before switching the translation system of some guides. After spending many hours in the merge issue between our old teams and the transifex.net ones, it is still an active task. Thanks to involved contributors, it is moving forward, there are already some projects fully merged. Willing to help with the IQSG (installation quick start guide), I noticed an issue in the transifex config[1], which leads me to a zanata config file and the corresponding git commits. A bit of history. A while back, we were using our own Transifex instance, which was not sticking to the upstream releases. It was a mess with projects unavailable and other issues. There were 2 solutions: - Migrating to transifex.net, the online hosted service maintained by the Transifex team, - Moving to an other system (in our infra or somewhere else). Some wanted to try Zanata. There where a RH instance set for this purpose[2]. After many discussions, it has been decided to move all our projects to transifex.net. Few upstream projects choose for specific reasons to move to an other service, and even to Zanata (1 or 2). And few others just stops dealing with translations. Yes, changing the translation platform is a pain for both, maintainers and translators. Nowadays, we are close to have fully integrated all projects to transifex.net (still some merge concerning docs[3]). So here we are, with translations done through transifex.net for the projects correctly set up, the other one needs attention ([4]?). /end of history The IQSG is not correctly set up. But we just saw on the git log "* fb03c3c Adding zanata config file" this is… weird without other notice. On the Zanata instance, we could see: Description Creation Date Status Fedora Installation Quick Start Guide 19 juin 2012 Active Fedora Installation Guide 19 juin 2012 Active I just asked more info on IRC, and it appears that we need to discuss/define how we deal with our translation platform, and let our maintainers explain why they need to move somewhere else. nb has reverted the ZANATA commits in the above guides, to avoid mistakes. @maintainers, could you please explain your needs/wishes?
