-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi everyone, I'm very pleased to announce that we finally have a name for our M release: Mitaka (三鷹)! Accordingly, the Tokyo Summit for the Mitaka release is only just over 100 days away. CFP closed a couple of days ago, and I've noticed that the first round of ATC discount codes have gone out. If you haven't got yours yet, then keep patching Liberty and sit tight. The discount codes will come out in stages after every snapshot. This week, we've had some great discussions about networking scenarios in the Install Guide, and the best way to include RST files in our newly converted books. We also have both the HA Guide and the Cloud Admin Guide conversions in their final stages, and the Install Guide conversion sprint coming up. Very exciting! == 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 nearly done. Get in touch with Meg or Matt: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HA_Guide_Update ** Security Guide: Spec has merged. Planning is happening here: https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/sec-guide-rst * 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 stalled on the Ironic docs, we need to pick this up again. 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 ** A small amount of progress on the old bugs we held over from last week. New ones to check out in this newsletter! == 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 next week.

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. == HA Guide Works == With the RST conversion on the HA Guide wrapping up, the HA Guide speciality team are looking for people to help out with the reorganisation and writing the new content. They have quite a few bugs to get through, and they need your help! Contact Matt Griffin, or any other member of the HA Guide Speciality Team, or join their weekly IRC meeting. Details here: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Documentation/HA_Guide_Update == Docs Tools == Last week, we released openstackdocstheme 1.1.0, see http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-announce/2015-June/000392.ht….

Turkey Horizon translation broken
by Akihiro Motoki 14 Jul '15

14 Jul '15

Hi Turkey language team and I18N whole team, Horizon daily translation import patch [1] detects an translation error that turkey translation has invalid message format string. It is detected in "check-tempest-dsvm-full" job [2], more precisely [3]. It is an expected behavior, but my question is how we should deal with. Is there any defined process? AFAIK we have never had this kind of discussion. Ideally, it is great that Turkey team can take an action soon. On the other hand, we need to have a process as the I18N project because this blocks translations of all languages. Transifex administrators can delete such translations, but I would like to see the consensus. [1] https://review.openstack.org/#/c/200793/ [2] http://logs.openstack.org/93/200793/4/check/check-tempest-dsvm-full/33e49b1/ [3] http://logs.openstack.org/93/200793/4/check/check-tempest-dsvm-full/33e49b1… Thanks, Akihiro

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.

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)

They promise not to laugh at you! https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/CrossProjectLiaisons#Documentation == i18n Team == At Summit, I spent a lot of time with Ying Chun Guo (Daisy) from the translation team, to try and come up with a way we can make sure our teams are working together better. 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.

Specialty teams connecting to translation team
by Anne Gentle 18 Jun '15

18 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 17 Jun '15

17 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

15 Jun '15

Dear All, My name is Huseyin Cotuk, and i have been using OpenStack for more than 3 years in production. I am working for the Turkish government and we operate an OpenStack cloud for governmental institutions, universities, other research institutes and internal projects. Currently we have more than 4000 cpu cores, 500 TBytes of storage and so on. I am head of cloud department at TUBITAK ULAKBIM in Turkey, and while OpenStack Days Istanbul yesterday, we met with Jonathan and Lauren. We talked about our projects and i promised for the Turkish translation of OpenStack dashboard for the Turkish community. My organization TUBITAK ULAKBIM is also coordinating national operating system (Pardus), and we already have a translation team for this OS. We will work together with this translation team, and my team will review the translations after OS team finishes. My transifex id is huseyincotuk and the project name is openstack_turkish. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Huseyin

Thought on String Freeze
by Akihiro Motoki 15 Jun '15

15 Jun '15

Hi I18N folks, # Congratulation for the official I18N project!! I first thought to send this mail to the dev list, but it seems better to share my thought in the I18N folks first. Problems ========== I am feeling that String Freeze does not work well in the past several releases.There are several I think we should not apply String Freeze for projects for which not so many translators work on. As far as I understand, Horizon and documentations are targets for most translations in the past several releases. On the other hands, core reviewers of projects other than Horizon and docs (including keystone) were taking care of String Freeze exception WELL. My Proposal ============= Considering the current status, I think we should limit "String Freeze" only to projects which translators are interested in. My idea is to declare projects we would like to enable "String Freeze" just after Liberty-3 is cut. By doing so, other projects no longer need to take care of String Freeze exception. (Note that the freeze date of the documentation projects are different and we can apply some different policy on documentations). Thought? I cannot join the team meeting tomorrow due to LinuxCon/CloudOpen Japan, but I hope you will share your thought on this topic. Thanks, Akihiro

Fwd: [openstack-dev] [horizon][i18n] Ordering of PO files
by Tom Fifield 08 Jun '15

08 Jun '15

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [openstack-dev] [horizon][i18n] Ordering of PO files Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2015 17:28:39 -0600 From: Thai Q Tran <tqtran(a)us.ibm.com> Reply-To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev(a)lists.openstack.org> To: OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) <openstack-dev(a)lists.openstack.org> Hi folks, In the midst of shifting to angular, we are making use of babel for extracting messages. This would then allow us to write a custom extractor for angular templates. Here's the patch that compare PO files: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/189502/ It looks worse than reality, if you compare the django vs babel makemessages, they are nearly identical, only the ordering is different. Which leads me to my next point. If the ordering of the translatable strings are not the same, how does that affect translation (if at all)?

I18n team working sessions in Vancouver
by Ying Chun Guo 05 Jun '15

05 Jun '15

Hello, all We had a great day yesterday. There were two I18n team working sessions. People from Japanese, Frech, Russian, Polish, Chinese and Chinese Taiwan team attended. Key persons from Doc team, infra team, and Horizon dev team joined the discussions too. We made good progress with glossaries, document translations, string freeze, tool migration, and etc. More details could be found in the etherpad pages [1] [2]. Yet our translators still want more face to face communications. So I organize an ad hoc meeting on Wednesday afternoon, only for translators. If you are translators and in Vancouver summit now, come to join the ad hoc meeting. The place is at a round table outside the Room 1, East Building at the Vancouver Convention Centre. The time is from 2:05pm to 5:05pm on Wednesday, May 21st. I will sit there and wait for you to join. I created an Etherpad page for us to track the discussion. Feel free to add the topics you want to cover. https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/vancouver-translation-team-workshop Thank you. Best regards Ying Chun Guo (Daisy) [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Vancouver-I18n-WG-session [2] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/Vancouver-I18n-Translation-platform-session

I18n team, OpenStack Project Team!
by Ying Chun Guo 03 Jun '15

03 Jun '15

Hello, all I'm pleased to announce that I18n team is approved by TC to become a OpenStack Project Team. We are now under the authority of the OpenStack Technical Committee. In return, we could get some space and time to discuss our future development at the Design Summits. Our contributors could vote in the Technical Committee election. This is a great milestone after I18n team was created. Next, we need to figure out the criteria of our core members and active members, which might be different from dev team. We will initialize the core team, then grow the team and increase the contributions. Let's work together to make it a successful team. Best regards Ying Chun Guo (Daisy)

Magnum, magnumclient translations?
by Andreas Jaeger 14 May '15

14 May '15

The magnum project wants to enable translation, see https://review.openstack.org/#/c/182835/ and https://review.openstack.org/#/c/182848/ Is there any guideline from the translation team which projects get translation enabled? I know that enabling translation does not mean, something gets translated - Davanum, keep that in mind ;) Btw. magnum is an OpenStack project that provides a set of services for management of application containers in a multi-tenant cloud environment. And so far we've enabled all projects in the OpenStack project. Only the last months this was not done with each new project moving under the big tent. I'll review the requests today or tomorrow and will setup transifex for the team unless I hear otherwise from the translation team, 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
