Liberty translation, go!
by Ying Chun Guo 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Hello, team As the new translation tool - Zanata is ready to use, let's kick off the Liberty translation from today. The Liberty translation plan includes Horizon translation and Nova translation. We are quite familiar with Horizon translations. Here are the Horizon documents to be translated in Liberty: https://translate.openstack.org/iteration/view/horizon/master/documents Since Kilo release, there are 500+ new introduced messages. Nova is the first time to be included in the translation plan. It could be regarded as a trial that I18n team would translate more kinds of user facing messages in the future. Here are the Nova documents to be translated: https://translate.openstack.org/iteration/view/nova/master/documents Document "nova" contains user facing messages, which is required to be translated. Documents "nova-log-*" contain different levels of log messages, which are optional to be translated. Whether to translate log messages and which levels to be translated could be the decision of each language team. In Liberty translation, we use two phases of string freeze: the soft freeze and the hard freeze[1]. Soft freeze is already happened at feature freeze time. Hard freeze will be happened in the week of 21st September. New strings will be added before the strict freeze while we are translating. After strict freeze there will be few strings added, and then we will get 10 days to finish up the translations. Oct 12-16 is the official Liberty release date. We have to finish all the translations several days before the final release, in order to give time to development team to import translations, package everything, and run final tests. So Oct 5 would be an appropriate deadline for translation. If you want your language pack to be included in Liberty release, work with your language team, finish these translations before Oct. 5. Zanata is a new tool for translation team. Wiki page [2] describes how to register and how to join a language team. Zanata translators guide [3] is helpful if you don't know how to use Zanata. If you meet with any issues or problems you cannot solve, ask for help through the IRC channel and the mailing list. There is a strong infrastructure team and a supportive Zanata team behind us. September is a busy time for translators. Let's start Liberty translation now. Any questions, please let me know.

Request for Assistance with OpenStack Diversity Survey
by Roland Chan 10 Sep '15

10 Sep '15

Hi All, As part of the OpenStack Foundation's Diversity Working Group. ( https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Diversity) I am coordinating a survey of the OpenStack community. The intent of the survey is the measure the diversity of the community in various areas to determine priorities for action. The survey covers a great number of topics: gender, sexuality, geography and language use. It would be of assistance if the survey could be translated into multiple languages to maximise the ease with which the people can respond. There are about 15 short questions that would need to be translated. I'm aware that additional work at this time of the cycle is probably the last thing anyone needs, but if anyone is free to assist for any language, please contact me. Even advice would be welcome if translation is not feasible. Also, if anyone is interested in participating in the Diversity Working Group, check out the link above and come to a meeting. Thanks! Roland Chan

Fwd: Final plans before translations switch to Zanata

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: *Arvinder Singh Kang* <contact(a)arvinderkang.com> Date: Tuesday, September 8, 2015 Subject: [Openstack-i18n] Final plans before translations switch to Zanata To: Amandeep Saini <jimidar(a)gmail.com> pa-IN is flawed and Panjabi is not a proprietary language of India - but language is spread across the world.e.g. It is the third most spoken/written language in BC after English. Also pa-Arab is not appropriate because there is no direct connection between spoken Arabic and Punjabi. pa-Guru / pa-Shah would make a much better argument.

Final plans before translations switch to Zanata
by Elizabeth K. Joseph 08 Sep '15

08 Sep '15

Hi everyone, As I mentioned at the infrastructure meeting yesterday[0], we are almost ready to launch the production Zanata server (translate.openstack.org) I have a week long trip starting this Friday night so I'm sharing my plans here so clarkb, StevenK and others can continue the work while I'm gone. I'm Cc:ing the translations team on this message so they are kept in the loop. First of all, timeline-wise we're aiming to get this in the hands of the translators by the week of September 7th so they have time to do their work before the Liberty release. We have a few improvements to installation that we still need to work out: 1. Switch to archive module for server installation (change here: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/192901/) 2. Switch to archive module for client installation (I'll get that change proposed today) 3. Figure out why Wildfly 9.1 isn't being installed and used (instead of 8.1 that we began with), in spite of changing the download link (it's being downloaded) and upgrading the puppet-wildfly module (Steve: you've doven into the latest changes in the puppet-wildfly module, perhaps you're in a good place to look at this?) This should all be finished in the next couple days and we can then launch translate.openstack.org Beyond raw server launching, there are a few other things that we need to make sure happen: 1. Work with Carlos to get instructions for properly importing the user database to the new server (I've Cc:ed him here, we need this ASAP) 2. Work with Daisy to make sure there are cut-over instructions from Transifex to Zanata, and if there's anything we need to do (we should make a plan, even if the exact date is not clear) 3. Generally make sure everything on our script side of things is going well (StevenK has done an amazing job with these so I'm not worried) 4. Make sure we have imported everything we need. AJaeger will be traveling some too, but had the following to say: "First priority would be that the translators can translate. So, this means pushing source strings to Zanata (at least once initially) and getting them working is most important. Then the regular update after each change (which should be working fine already). Importing in the projects can wait a few days, there's no harm if that one stops for a week or two since we do not lose time this way. For translation the most important project is horizon with it's friends" I think that's it. I'll do my best to check in and reply to email and IRC pings while I'm traveling, but some things may need to wait until I'm back at my hotel in the [US east coast] evening. I'll be back the [US west coast] night of Sunday, September 6th. The 7th is a holiday in the US, but I'll be available if we have unexpected problems to work through. Thanks everyone.

Migrating to Zanata - Progress update
by Ying Chun Guo 08 Sep '15

08 Sep '15

Hello, team According to the update from infrastructure team, the migration will happen in this week, probably on late Tuesday PDT time. All the preparation work is done. Just need an appropriate time to kick off. Now there are 92 users registered in Zanata trial instance (i.e. translate-dev.openstack.org ). 8 language teams have coordinators. Comparing with 900+ translators and 80+ language teams in Transifex, there is still a big gap. More details about the translation teams in Zanata could be found here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/I18nTeam/Migration-to-zanata I'm going to use "messaging" in Transifex to inform the change to coordinators of some "important" language teams , one by one. If you have good suggestions to attract more translators from Transifex to Zanata, please let me know. Thank you. Best regards Ying Chun Guo (Daisy)

[nova][i18n] Is there any point in using _() in python-novaclient?
by Matt Riedemann 06 Sep '15

06 Sep '15

I noticed this today: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/219768/ And it got me thinking about something I've wondered before - why do we even use _() in python-novaclient? It doesn't have any .po files for babel message translation, it has no babel config, there is nothing in setup.cfg about extracting messages and compiling them into .mo's, there is nothing on Transifex for python-novaclient, etc. Is there a way to change your locale and get translated output in nova CLIs? I didn't find anything in docs from a quick google search. Comparing to python-openstackclient, that does have a babel config and some locale po files in tree, at least for de and zh_TW. So if this doesn't work in python-novaclient, do we need any of the i18n code in there? It doesn't really hurt, but it seems pointless to push changes for it or try to keep user-facing messages in mind in the code. -- Thanks, Matt Riedemann

Zanata migration on 9/7?
by Akihiro Motoki 01 Sep '15

01 Sep '15

Hi Daisy, I heard from other Japanese translators that we will move to Zanata on Sep 7. Is it officially decided? As far as I heard it was announced only on Transifex message [1]. After I heard that, I checked various place in Transifex but I could not find any announce. In addition, I completely disable Transifex message as almost of them are useless. Has it already been announced in this list? Don't we need to announce it in this list? I thought this list is the official place where this kind of important information is announced. Is my understanding wrong? Akihiro [1] https://www.transifex.com/openstack/teams/670/discussions/13508/
