-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, First of all, apologies for my absence over the past couple of weeks. I took some time off to spend with my daughter while she was on school holidays, and then got ill! It never rains but it pours ;) While I was out, our M release was named, and then unnamed, and we're now waiting for a new name. We also had a great discussion about which networking scenario is the best fit for our new-and-improved Installation Guide, and planned a sprint to get the RST conversion for that book happening. More on that in this newsletter. == Progress towards Liberty == * RST conversion: ** Install Guide: Conversion is now underway, sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Installation_Guide_Mi… ** Cloud Admin Guide: is nearly done. Sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Cloud_Admin_Guide_Mig… ** HA Guide: is also underway. Get in touch with Meg or Matt: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HA_Guide_Update ** Security Guide: In planning. Stand by for more info. * User Guides information architecture overhaul ** Waiting on the RST conversion of the Cloud Admin Guide to be complete * Greater focus on helping out devs with docs in their repo ** Work has started on the Ironic docs, we're now trying to resolve some issues with service name standards ("Bare Metal" or "Bare metal"?). Contact me if you want to know more, or are willing to help out. * Improve how we communicate with and support our corporate contributors ** I have been brainstorming ideas with Foundation, watch this space! * Improve communication with Docs Liaisons ** I'm very pleased to see liaisons getting more involved in our bugs and reviews. Keep up the good work! * Clearing out old bugs ** Sadly, no progress this week. == RST Migration == The next books we are focusing on for RST conversion are the Install Guide, Cloud Admin Guide, HA Guide, and the Security Guide. If you would like to assist, please get in touch with the appropriate speciality team: * Install Guide: ** Contact Karin Levenstein <karin.levenstein(a)rackspace.com> ** Sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Installation_Guide_Mi… ** There's a sprint happening on this book later this month.

Our lovely team of cores will be keeping an eye out to make sure loose changes to XML don't pass the gate, but try to help them out by pointing out both patches in your reviews. == Install Guide RST Conversion Sprint == In order to kick off the RST conversion of the Install Guide, the speciality team have decided to run a virtual conversion sprint over two days on July 22-24. For more information, see the https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/VirtualSprints#Installation_guide_conversio… wiki page, and the https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/installguide-rst-virtual-sprint etherpad. == New core team == The core team have just completed our review for July, and would like to welcome two new core contributors: Alexandra Settle, and Olena Logvinova. Congratulations to you both :) == Doc team meeting == The APAC meeting was cancelled this week, our next meetings are: US: Wednesday 15 July, 14:00:00 UTC (note that this has NOT changed with daylight savings time) APAC: Wednesday 22 July, 00:30:00 UTC Please go ahead and add any agenda items to the meeting page here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/DocTeamMeeting#Agenda_for_next_mee… == Spotlight bugs for this week == Sadly, even with an extra week, our three spotlight bugs remain unloved.

Hi all, I'm just going through old questions on Ask OpenStack, and thought we might have an answer for this one: https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/4346/is-there-a-way-of-passing-the-la… I wanted to know if it is possible to get the localized openstack messages when I make a openstack REST API call? If so how can I pass the language header? Regards, Tom

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, First of all, our M release has been named! Sadly, it hasn't cleared legal yet, so we can't publicly announce it, however, here are the poll results: http://civs.cs.cornell.edu/cgi-bin/results.pl?id=E_4983776e190c8dbc It was a close-run contest! This week, I've been continuing to dust off some old bugs, and have been chatting to a few of our docs liaisons to work out how we can best get them engaged with what we're working on. I've also been spending a lot of time on standards questions, and thinking about the future of the DocImpact flag. == Progress towards Liberty == * RST conversion: ** Install Guide: Conversion is now ready to start, sign up here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/Migrate#Installation_Guide_Mi… ** Cloud Admin Guide: is chugging along.

Thanks for the quick turnaround on that! == Documentation Standards == There's been quite a lot of conversation this week over capitalisation of service names, with the community divided down the middle as to which we prefer! While we all enjoy a good style discussion, I've also asked Anne (in her role on the TC) to confirm the legal restrictions for us. Watch this space! In the meantime, continue to discuss this on the mailing list :) == Docs Liaisons == Don't forget that we have subject matter experts to help you with documentation questions that you might have.

Help with RST translation tool chain needed
by Andreas Jaeger 22 Jun '15

22 Jun '15

The Japanese translation of the User Guide should be complete according to transifex but looking at docs.openstack.org/draft/ja/user-guide/ I see only a few words in Japanese. Building the guide locally, I see po files that are completely translated but somehow the sphinx tools are not picking these up properly. I'm puzzled on what's going wrong here. Is there anybody that can look at the RST building and tell us what's wrong - and fix if possible ;), please? Note to build the document locally yourself, you can run: tox -e buildlang -- ja Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj(a){suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter/Identica: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Dilip Upmanyu, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Terminologies
by Ying Chun Guo 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hello, In Vancouver translation workshop, we decided to compose the translation terminologies. I merged the terminologies used by Japanese team, German team and French team and made out the first version of translation terms. When we generate it, terminology will be the first contents to be translated in any translation teams. It is a good way to get the consistency among different translators and different translation resources. Please take a look and let me know if you have any comments and suggestions. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BRizUNhDLl_6NtsGconFkxsKUqAmEEGum9I… Best regards Ying Chun Guo (Daisy)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, This week, I've been working on helping out the Ironic team to sort out their Install Guide (thanks have to go to Gauvain and Nick, who have offered to help out with writing assistance here), and trying to come up with some better ways to work with the i18n team, and our docs liaisons. More on all of that further in. == Progress towards Liberty == * RST conversion: ** Install Guide: Spec is merged, stand by for conversion to start ** Cloud Admin Guide: is well on the way.

To that end, we've got a few ideas we're going to be implementing over the next few weeks. First of all, this newsletter now goes direct to the the translation mailing list, as well the dev and doc lists (hi translators!). Secondly, Daisy is going to poll her team to identify an i18n documentation liaison, who will be the go-to person for all questions about translation for docs. The other thing we're going to do is to make sure we're helping the i18n team to keep their status page up to date: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/I18nTeam/docs-translation#Document_categori… If you're working on a doc that is translated, please check that table and make sure the translation team know what you're up to! This will help prevent needless effort on their part, which benefits us all in the end. == Doc team meeting == The US meeting was held this week, see the minutes here to catch up: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/MeetingLogs#2015-06-17 Apologies for the timing confusion on that one, it seems as though daylight savings changes took us by surprise. For now, the meeting will remain at 1400UTC. If you would prefer it to be at a different time, bring it up on the mailing list, or in the next US meeting. Next meetings are: APAC: Wednesday 24 June, 00:30:00 UTC US: Wednesday 1 July, 14:00:00 UTC Please go ahead and add any agenda items to the meeting page here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Meetings/DocTeamMeeting#Agenda_for_next_mee… == Spotlight bugs for this week == Of the three bugs we spotlighted last week, one of them got marked as invalid (thanks Tom!), and another is in progress with SME assistance (thanks Olga!).

Specialty teams connecting to translation team
by Anne Gentle 19 Jun '15

19 Jun '15

Hi all, I'm sitting here in Vancouver next to Daisy (Ying Chun Guo) who leads the i18N efforts for OpenStack. She would like each specialty team lead to connect with the i18N team to communicate the amount of change expected so that they can evaluate the timing of translation, and how much is done that can be translated. We also had a session with the i18N team and want to work on more communication with each team, and I think the specialty team leads are a great way to start that effort. Thoughts or ideas? Let us know. Thanks, Anne -- Anne Gentle annegentle(a)justwriteclick.com

common (RST) translation
by KATO Tomoyuki 18 Jun '15

18 Jun '15

Hi team, I'm translating User Guides (RST) recently. I found a below problem. Any thought? Problem: Each message catalog "pot" file contains all strings of the RST document, including "common" files (glossary and so on). In particular, "user-guide" and "user-guide-admin" resource at Transifex have same strings in "common" files respectively. This causes unintended inconsistency of translation. In fact, Japanese "user-guide" and "user-guide-admin" have different translated strings, which need to sync manually. Solution (just my idea): As is: 1. Sphinx(?) generates the "pot" file. 2. translate at Transifex. 3. Sphinx(?) merge the translated strings. To be: 1. Sphinx(?) generates the "pot" file. 2. A new script split message stringss for "common". (maybe, based on "msgcat") So, generate 2 resources (main document resource and "common" resource). 3. translate at Transifex. 4. merge the 2 resources for Sphinx(?). 5. Sphinx(?) merge the translated strings. Regards, KATO Tomoyuki
