Japanese Translations publishing?
by Andreas Jaeger 18 Apr '14

18 Apr '14

Looking at the great work the Japanese team is doing, I wonder why the High Availability and Security Guides are not published on docs.openstack.org. Should I make the changes for these documents? Any other documents I should publish? Note we do not need to add links to these manuals, we can just publish them as is and see that everything looks fine.

[horizon] contextual-markers for better translations
by Yves-Gwenaël Bourhis 14 Apr '14

14 Apr '14

Hi all, I noticed that translating to certain languages requires some compromises in both grammar and syntax to often have a deceiving result... This is due to the fact that we do not use contextual-markers: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/i18n/translation/#contextual-m… except in one unique place: https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1307476 The context is required because a word which is spelled the same in English may be 2 different words in an other language. Even less trivial, a same word with the same meaning can be spelled differently depending on the way it is used in a sentence, and there the context is really important. Some work was already done with https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1253678 But contextual-markers need to be added to many translatable strings. The issue about changing translatable strings to contextual translatable strings implies redoing all those translations. Do not PANIC :-) , the current translations will remain as is for Icehouse, the impact of using contextual-markers will be for Juno. My concern is that many other languages than my 2 native ones have a richer syntax, so I may not be aware of all possible contexts required for other languages to be properly translatable. Concerning the example I gave in https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1307476 any comment on the "context" you would need to help you make a better translation will be welcomed, and I'll need your feedback on what context "you" need and in which place in the dashboard, in order to help you make the best translations. So feel free to drop a reply to this mail with all the places where your struggle to provide a translation due to lack of context and where a context and reformulation would really help you do your translations. Thank you all. -- Yves-Gwenaël Bourhis

Horizon translation status update
by Akihiro Motoki 11 Apr '14

11 Apr '14

Hi all, Thanks for your efforts of Icehouse translations. I would like to share my plan for Horizon translations both for Havana and Icehouse and know your opinions. [Havana] After Iceehouse is release, the last update of Havana (2013.2.4) is planned [1]. As far as I checked Transifex translations, a couple of languages have updates since Havana 2013.2.2 (released Feb 13). IMO it is better to import translations for the last coming Havana update. Thought? [Icehouse] As we did for Havana stable updates, we have a plan to import translations for each stable Icehouse update. The first two stable updates are good chances to update our translations. [Juno] Juno translations of Horizon are now marked as "translation is not accepted" to avoid confusions. I will remove this restriction once Icehouse is released. As you may know, it does not fit for translations as many changes will happen in the next half year. INSTEAD I would suggest to report issues to Horizon if you feel difficulties during translating for Icehouse or have improvement requests. (Of course this list can be used to discuss these topics too.) The exact dates both for Havana and Icehouse will be determined after the next OpenStack Summit is over.

Important notice about Horizon translation
by Ying Chun Guo 07 Apr '14

07 Apr '14

Hello all Now Horizon RC1 is shipped. The source codes of Horizon in git repository will be switched from master branch to icehouse branch. Our translation resources will switch as the same time. If you look at the resources of Horizon, you will notice there are 3 resources with a prefix of "Icehouse", and 3 resources with a prefix of "Juno". Now we are working on the translations for Icehouse release. So the resources we are working on are: - Icehouse - Horizon JavaScript Translations: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/horizon/resource/horizon-js-translatio… - Icehouse - Horizon Translations: https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/horizon/resource/horizon-translations-… - Icehouse - Openstack Dashboard Translations : https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/horizon/resource/openstack-dashboard-t… The resources for Juno release are marked as "not accept translation". Please pay attention to it. @ French, Korean, Chinese (Taiwan ) and Portuguese translation teams: The translation of "Icehouse - Openstack Dashboard Translations" are not 100% completed. It is caused by the update of source po file. Please take a look at it. Thanks and regards Daisy
