[I18n] project team status update regarding internationalization/translation as July 2019
by Ian Y. Choi 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

Hello all, I would like to share current project team status for better visibility into I18n team members, copying to openstack-discuss and user-committee thread: 1. Translation and team effort status There are still lots of translation contribution as you see through Stackalytics: https://www.stackalytics.com/?metric=translations&release=train . The number of translated words is not larger than the previous cycle, but I estimate that it will be similar or a little bit less than the previous cycle since I18n usually contributes translations a lot especially during Soft & Hard StringFreeze periods. Note that I18n team currently sets higher priority on OpenStack user survey translation and project document translations. Such priorities information can be found on Zanata dashboard: https://translate.openstack.org/ . Other progress such as migrating Zanata into other translation platform seems slow - me and Frank are planning to have a virtual sprint. 2. Shanghai Summit & PTG preparation : Frank submitted his presentation including me and Hoarce (China team). Let's wait for final approval on presentation submission. : There should be PTG at Shanghai - please add your name and detail thinking to Etherpad mentioned in http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-i18n/2019-July/003436.html . I strongly think to more encourage participation since I expect more participation especially from Chinese translators & contributors. 3. Updating ATC & AUC : Frank previously submitted extra-ATC for Stein through https://review.opendev.org/#/c/633398/ , and this time I would like to submit the stat calculation from 2019-01-26 to 2019-07-25. : All contributors who had commits on openstack/i18n repository will be automatically regarded as Active Technical Contributors [1], and I18n team would like to nominate all translators who contributed translations on OpenStack official repositories (https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/projects/ ) >= 300 words as extra-ATCs assuming that their Zanata e-mail IDs are registered as Foundation members. : All translators who contributed >=300 word tranlations to the following projects will be nominated as Active User Contributors [2] assuming that their Zanata e-mail IDs are registered as Foundation members: "contributor-guide, edge-computing, leveraging-containers-openstack, openstack-user-survey, operations-guide". This is new nomination after the decision during Stein PTG with User Committee: Please see [3] and [4] if you would like to follow-up with more information. I will do this nomination for ATC & AUC as PTL just after July 25, although the due of extra ATC is Aug 26-30 [5] since I synced with Foundation that the price of Summit ticket will increase around Aug 7 : processing within the due will be fine, also I set period exactly for six months. 4. Team status : Although I regularly be online during I18n (+Docs) IRC team meetings, I couldn't find enough quorum, and I couldn't proceed more deep conversation with language teams (usually no reply from my e-mails unfortunately). : Current I18n team core members seem busy but when I communicate with them, all they are still very supportive to I18n team projects. I really appreciate their kind help. : Also, I find that some translators are very active comparing to some inactive language coordinators. In this case, would it be a good idea to nominate them as language coordinators? Please share your thoughts. : However, if such lack of team member conversations keep going, then I18n team might decide during upcoming PTG to make translation from an official team status into Special Interest Group [6]. This would mean that there will be no official PTL election and there will be no extra-ATC nomination, although I need to more figure out in details in future.

by Andreas Jaeger 23 Jul '19

There's an error because a character 08 is in the translated text, see: http://logs.openstack.org/periodic/opendev.org/openstack/operations-guide/m… Could anybody look into this and delete the offending string, please?

[I18n][ptg] Shanghai PTG/Forum Attendance
by Ian Y. Choi 11 Jul '19

11 Jul '19

Hello, Like other official teams, I18n team has been also asked to get an idea of how many people are planning to attend the PTG and/or Forum. I have created an Etherpad to start collecting topics as well as a list of people who are planning to attend [1], and if you think you may be in Shanghai or are in a timezone that can participate remotely, please update the Etherpad. Note that this upcoming PTG/Forum is very Asia-timezone friendly - I highly encourage people in Asia countries (including China, surely) to participate offline or remotely. Thanks! With many thanks, /Ian [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/i18n-shanghai-ptg-planning
