To language team coordinators: get ready for Mitaka translation
by Ying Chun Guo 28 Sep '16

28 Sep '16

Dear coordinators, Mitaka translation will be started at the beginning of March, and probably ended in the week of March 28. We need to get ourselves ready for Mitaka translation from now on. Because of the join of IBM professional translators, we will be able to cover more projects in our translation plan of this release. Generally, the jobs of existing community translators will not be affected, focus on Horizon, same as before. IBM translators will focus on "other" projects. Before Mitaka translation starts, there are several things you can do: 1. Update glossary. If you don't have glossary translations in i18n repo[1], or you want to update glossary translations, you can send a patch with your translations or your updates to i18n repo directly. 2. Document your local team communication method in the team wiki page[2]. While Mitaka translation starts, it's good to open your local communication channel to all of your language translators. Good communication is quite important for people from different places to work well together. 3. Join IRC channel[3] #openstack-i18n with your zanata ID As a coordinator, you have the responsibility to coordinate your language translations. A good practise is to show up in IRC and have your people to get you easily when they have troubles. If you have any questions, talk to me. My IRC ID is "Daisy" in the channel of #openstack-i18n. Thank you.

Strange projects on translate.openstack.org
by Andreas Jaeger 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

Hi, does anybody know what these are? https://translate.openstack.org/project/view/swift-italian/ https://translate.openstack.org/project/view/tempest https://translate.openstack.org/project/view/test-json-md IMHO we should not add new projects that are manually translated - instead let's integrate them in the usual toolchain. Also, why do these have some projects separate maintainers? We don't need them IMHO at all. I propose to delete them. Going forward, I suggest that any new projects outside of the usual process get discussed on the openstack-i18n mailing list, so that we know what's going on. Can we also document the reason for them somewhere?

Starting translations for libraries (like djnago-openstack-auth) earlier in Newton?
by Akihiro Motoki 31 Mar '16

31 Mar '16

During the Mitaka RC phase, I released django-openstack-auth only for translation. At that time, I was asked from Doug Hellmann, the release manamgement PTL, whether the i18n team can start translations for libraries earlier, i.e., sooner before the freeze date of libraries. [1] Can we do this in Newton or later? If we accept this, please keep it in mind when planning translation schedule and make sure to announce it to the team. I am just sharing information and won't lead this discussion. I have been coordinating this kind of things for long and now am tired to do it. I hope someone else takes the role. Background: django-openstack-auth is a library used by horizon. In the OpenStack release process, all libraries are frozen when the milestone-3 is cut.

Re: [Openstack-i18n] Criteria of Horizon language list forMitakarelease
by Akihiro Motoki 29 Mar '16

29 Mar '16

Hi Doug and all, I needed to spend some time to look for the history. Roughly speaking our history can be broken donw into three categories: [1] Liberty Horizon [2] documentation translation from 2014. [3] up to Kilo Horizon I think following the history clarified what happened. --- [1] Liberty Horizon In Liberty, we migrated the translation platform to Zanata and all imports were done by Jenkins jobs (thanks to Andreas). [2] documentation translation from 2014 In parallel, there was the ongoing efforts to automate documentation translations. The thread is [2] and we discussed the threshold for translation addition (75%) and removal (60%). It is documented very well at https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Translations/Infrastructure. [3] up to Kilo Horizon The following are my translation import patch for Horizon up to Kilo: * KIlo : https://github.com/openstack/horizon/commit/56d5683c8c49558ae22200bc01ec87e… (The commit message was wrong not Juno but Kilo :p) * Juno : https://github.com/openstack/horizon/commit/9b0ba951c07af13aa4c386b19876474… * Icehouse : https://github.com/openstack/horizon/commit/a9cf547d20065b2bd49e101364b46cf… * Havana : https://github.com/openstack/horizon/commit/4910222356fbd2aeb0dab1b3cebe003… All of these commit messages said "Import ~100% completed translaitons". It seems we used almost all are translated. I could not find the meeting log where we discussed this criteria first for Havana or Icehouse. According to [1] it seems we had the criteria of 95% for Juno. --- commit 56d5683c8c49558ae22200bc01ec87ea83144003 Author: Akihiro Motoki <motoki(a)da.jp.nec.com> Date: Thu Apr 23 06:58:49 2015 +0900 Import translations from Transifex for Juno * Import ~100% completed translations (translations available for 12 languages) * Delete incomplete languages * Update language list in openstack_dashboard settings.py --- That's all what I succeeded to gather.

unable to login to Zanata
by Nikita Burtsev 29 Mar '16

29 Mar '16

Hello, When I try to login to production Zanata I get forwarded to openstackID first then to Zanata profile creation page. This page tells me that my username/email are already in use. I've never used production Zanata before but I did use 'dev' version. I guess my profile was migrated from dev but never associated with openstackID (or something like that) Could someone help me out with this please? Thank you. -- BR Nikita

designate-dashboard missing template strings
by Akihiro Motoki 23 Mar '16

23 Mar '16

Hi, Strings in templates of designate-dashboard are not extracted now. https://bugs.launchpad.net/designate/+bug/1561203 and I proposed a fix at https://review.openstack.org/#/c/296807/ Questions for the team is whether we should have this in mitaka? We are in the hard string freeze after RC1 phase. This change violates the string freeze. However this change only add new strings and allows translators to translate strings which cannot be translated now. This add 18 fuzzy translations, 8 untranslated messages. I think it is acceptable from i18n view. Thought? Akihiro

Unfortunately the official translation check site is not announced yet. If you need an alternative one, try the following. Horizon is now available at http://157.7.133.23:13580/dashboard The default users are: admin and demo The password: UW3D9n6TqdGn Note that it is temporary and I am using this site for development and testing. The enabled panel may sometimes be changed. Do not ask me :)

[release][horizon][i18n] can we release django-openstack-auth of stable/mitaka for translations
by Akihiro Motoki 23 Mar '16

23 Mar '16

Hi release management team, Can we have a new release of django-openstack-auth from stable/mitaka branch for translations? What is happening? django-openstack-auth is a library project consumed by Horizon. The (soft) string freeze happens when the milestone-3 is cut. The milestone-3 is also the dependency freeze. This is a dilemma between dependency freeze and translation start, and there is no chance to import translations of django-openstack-auth for Mitaka. There are several updates of translations after 2.2.0 (mitaka) release [1]. As the i18n team, we would like to have a released version of django-openstack-auth with up-to-date translations. Which version? The current version of django-openstack-auth for Mitaka is 2.2.0. What version number is recommended, 2.2.1 or 2.3.0? When? Hopefully a new version is released soon around Mitaka is shipped. The current translation deadline is set to Mar 28 (the beginning of the release week). In my understanding we avoid releasing a new version of library before the Mitaka release. Distributors can choose which version is included in their distribution. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Akihiro [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/q/topic:zanata/translations+project:openstac…

I re-read the old logs. My memory is not correct. We first import ~100% translated languages, and then relaxed the criteria to 90~95%. It seems I thought this is the criteria.

Do you mean we should remove <90% translations and update the lang list accordingly? I made a quick survey. The result is not so happy, but I will just follow the team decision. We have four PO files per language for horizon. My understanding is 90% means 90% translations for all these PO files. Unfortunately, as of today, only four languages satisfy this criteria (90%): de, fr, ja, ko If we change the criteria to 66%, we will have three more languages: pt-br, ru, zh-cn. It is too sad statistics. openstack_dashboard/djangojs is the bottleneck of the progress. On the other hand, the current language list contains 15 translated languages: cs, de, en-gb, en-au, es, fr, it, ja, ko, pl, pt-br, ru, tr, zh-cn, zh-tw.

why is designate-dashboard excluded from the prioritized translation list?
by Akihiro Motoki 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Does anyone describe why designate-dashboard is not listed in the prioritized list? I see designate has assigned a cross project liaison for i18n at least Mar 4 (according to the wiki history) and the project seem to be taking care of translations well. I have no answer for http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2016-March/090022.html ? Can we describe a reasonable reason for them? Daisy, could you follow up the mailing thread? stable-mitaka is not setup for designate-dashboard. As far as I know, they have setup translation support in the early stage. If I remember correctly, we include murano-dashboard and magnum-ui because they responded in the -dev list. I am not sure we checked the wiki at that time, and the nomination period is enough.

Hi Daisy, Thanks for your reply to my rude mail forwarding _o_ > #1 we add it back to the plan. It has only 1 file with 68 words, really a > very small workload. My vote is #1. The following is just to record my memory. I think it was just a bad timing. We can improve the process in the future releases. * designate-dashboard is a candidate of the list, but we didn't see i18n liaison when the team meeting was held on Mar 3. This is the only reason. * In the mail to ask i18n liaison, we just asked to input his/her name to CPL wiki page if you are interested in i18n liaison, but we checked mail response only. * We decided the priority list just three days after the mail of i18n liaison request. Most teams are driven by weekly basis (IRC meeting or something), so three days is too short.

Will translation cleanup happen for Mitaka?
by Akihiro Motoki 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Hi, I saw translation cleanup which removed PO files of less translated language before Liberty release. Will the same thing happen for Mitaka release? Is anyone from the i18n project aware of it? I cannot find good information on this. The only information is [1] but it looks a proposal. I am not sure where it is discussed and who is the contact. I am writing another mail as Horizon liaison which asks how to update horizon language list before the release. If some cleanup happens for Mitaka, I hope the language list update happens at the same time or follow the same criteria.

Criteria of Horizon language list for Mitaka release
by Akihiro Motoki 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

Hi i18n team, As Horizon liaison, I would like to ask you all about the criteria of Horizon language list for Mitaka release. The same topic was discussed several releases ago and the consensus at that time were: * remove all translations with less than 90% progress * update the language list accordingly. Translations were imported manually at that time and the situation may be changed now. I don't have an opinion and will just follow the i18n project decision. If no response or well-defined criteria, I will just keep the current language list [1]. The following is just information: We have four PO files (django/djangojs for horizon and openstack_dashboard). The current translation import policy for each PO file is documented here [2]. Each PO file is imported once the translation percentage becomes over 75% and it will be removed when the translation percentage becomes less than 20%. What is our criteria? In future releases, I think we should automate this as a part of translation import jobs. I will reduce the work of horizon liaison.

Translations for release notes in Mitaka? Perhaps NO
by Akihiro Motoki 22 Mar '16

22 Mar '16

The release management team has changed the process of generating releases notes for Mitaka. Release notes are generated from YAML files in individual repos by using reno. My understanding is that we don't have translation support for Mitaka release notes. Is it correct? After checking the meeting minutes, I found Kato has an action item to talk about it with the relmgt team. is there any feedback? Personally I am okay with it. I am always using English release notes :-) I am translating release notes only for reading them carefully and better understanding of the release. Thanks, Akihiro

My less activity in Newton (as i18n project) and some suggestions to the team
by Akihiro Motoki 21 Mar '16

21 Mar '16

Hi team, I am writing this mail to announce my less activity in Newton cycle (as I18n project) and will focus on translations and reviews of my focused and interested areas (i.e, dashboards and documentations). Translation is just my spare-time activity, so I need to choose how to spend my time. I have been involved in OpenStack translation activity before the I18n team is organized. The community is growing continuously and it is time for me to focus on translation itself again. I have made various activities including the following for the i18n team so far, but most of them are now over or can be shared by the community. * Coordinate the translation import timing for Horizon (now importing translation are done automatically) * Coordinate the final release timing of dashboards (now we have cross-project liaisons. it is no longer a personal role.) * Coordinate translation imports for stable updates (now imported automatically) * Provide translation check site for dashboards (we will have the official translation check site and I intentionally decided not to provide such site to encourage the effort in the i18n project.) * Continuously improve the upstream of Horizon and documentations for translation friendly. * Setup translation setup for horizon plugins in Mitaka (Completed) * Write various documentations around translation and I18n activities Finally, I would like to share several thoughts and suggestions for the i18n project before stepping down from the main activity of the i18n team. I hope the community is healthy enough and see much progress in Newton. I will help your efforts from individual project side. * Glossary management: It needs to be improved along with a new version of Zanata. The basic process itself on how to update glossary is not documented. In addition to this, contextual information support would be great. * Release notes translation * Documentation around i18n are spread: * We have i18n related documentations in several places. The infra manuals, horizon devref docs, i18n docs, and openstack wiki. We should have better guidance for readers considering their interests. Although appropriate place depends on a content, the i18n team should lead the effort. * Need more documentations for various processes. For example, how we decide prioritized projects for translations should be documented. In Mitaka translations, some dashboard plugin whose member responded in the ML is prioriptized and some plugin who added an entry to the cross project liaison wiki page are not. This is unfair. Another example is the criteria of the language list of Horizon translations. Maintaining the translation check site is another one. * Discussion process: I previously proposed several questions or improvements via MLs or gerrit. In many times, hey let's discuss in team meetings and that's all. No feedback or continued discussion on the original place where discussions happened. This is the point I feel frustrated and one of reason I am leaving. I understand IRC meeting is important, but that's not all. I am not a full-timer for translations and it leads most meeting times do not work. Translations are supported by not small number of volunteers, so I believe more async communications like ML or gerrit should be encouraged. * Better translation quality with technical knowledge: * Previously we try to increase the number of translators to encourage transltaions. I think it is now time to improve the quality of translations for languages translated well. To improve the translation quality, understanding OpenStack projects is inevitable. It is not enough to see strings in Zanata. * We need to explore a way how to improve the quality. In addition to involving technical contributors in translation reviews, I believe pure translators understand the basics of OpenStack projects and their concepts. As I mentioend in a recent IRC meeting (which I could luckily job), translation and reviews of documentations are one of ways to understand OpenStack projects. * For example, in Japanese translations, I played a role of technical reviewers so far, but I am not scalable, so I cannot play this role and have no more time to review server side projects which I am not interested in translations for. I believe other language teams have similar problems. Thanks for your all help so far. Note that I will continue my role as i18n liaison of horizon and neutron. I also continue to be a translator and a reviewer. Best Regards, Akihiro
