Hello all,
As many of you know, the i18n SIG has been working on the migration
from Zanata to Weblate with contributions from Seongsoo and many
community members, including tooling and process work as documented on
our migration wiki page.
- https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/I18nTeam/Migration-to-weblate
This has been an important and ongoing effort for our translation
workflow with open communication.
Following recent discussions regarding Weblate configuration [1], it
has come to my attention that some administrative actions were taken
privately, without visibility to other reviewers or co-admins. While
the intent was operational alignment, this does not fully align with
our open principles.
To ensure proper management of administrative access and to
re-establish transparency to move forward, I plan to take the
following actions:
1. Revoke all existing Weblate administrator privileges so we can
review and reassign them in a transparent and collaborative manner.
2. Conduct a full review of Weblate permissions considering roles such
as translators, reviewers, language coordinators, core reviewers,
infra team, supporters, and Weblate staffs to ensure balanced
visibility, accountability, and continuity across ongoing i18n
activities.
Note that this is aligning with recent security-driven activities and
infrastructure-related changes relevant to our environment [2].
I appreciate the community’s understanding and the continued efforts
toward a successful and stable completion of the Weblate migration. I
welcome feedback from the community and will share the updated access
plan once the review is completed.
/Ian
