[PTG][Docs][I18n] Planning and time schedule
Dear fellow stackers, PTG for Train will held next week in Denver. I'm alredy here and I wouldn't say, I miss the train from Stapleton Station with all the noice. But I wouldn't miss the Train PTG in this lovely town in the U.S. It reminds me that diversity is still the greatest strength of our community. Well, for the different reasons I do not expect many team members to attend onsite, but some should be still there. The scheduled Docs/I18n day is regarding timetable [1] Thursday, May 02 2019. Weather forecast says sunny with 16 degrees - so no snow do expect. I've created an Etherpd and linked it on the main list [2]. Please feel free to add your name there and propose your topic. I spotted two things so far: - Documentation PDF support which is an official main goal for train - Migrate I18n translation platform back from Zanata There is no full planned timetable yet. Maybe we have during the day an onsite discussion and want to sync with remote guys at 16:00? EU is 8 hours ahead and Korea/Japan 15 hours [3]. Let me know your thoughts and ideas or write it to the Etherpad. many thanks Frank (previous PTL I18n) [1] https://www.openstack.org/ptg/#tab_schedule [2] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/PTG/Train/Etherpads [3] https://www.timezones.de/time_conference_planner_timeszone/v2/1850147%2C2950...

This comes as a surprise to me and I'd be interested to hear about the rationale. I don't know what happens behind the scenes but Zanata seems to satisfy the demand nicely. I was looking at the linked Etherpad [1] but couldn't find the answer: what is the motivation to make this change? [1] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/I18n-weblate-migration -- Thanks, Robert

See start of thread here: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-infra/2019-March/006294.html And followup in April. Basically: Zanata is dead as project and does not run on recent Java anymore, we had to go back to Xenial nodes for the all client interactions. So, Frank started evaluating alternatives, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger aj@{suse.com,opensuse.org} Twitter: jaegerandi SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Felix Imendörffer, Mary Higgins, Sri Rasiah HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

Robert, unfortunatelly there is no offial statement from RedHat/IBM so far. But in November last year the Zanata Core team starts to leave the company. Carlos confirmed that today on the Zanata mailing list. For this reason I started last year this Blueprint to evaluate new translation platform: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/openstack-i18n/+spec/renew-translation-plat... It seems Weblate fits most of our requirements, but there is no decission yet to change the platform. Maybe during PTG we make some progress. kind regards Frank

I see. I didn't want to bring into question this activity, just understand as changing the platform surely has an impact. Thanks for the explanation and taking action (also to AJ) and good luck with the PTG! -- Regards, Robert
