As discussed last month [1], the distribution of packages among the so-called "levels" of Debian Installer translation has changed to better reflect the real priorities for translators.
The new levels are now:
level 1
-------
All packages maintained in the D-I SVN tree
level 2
-------
All packages that interact with users while a Debian base system is
installed, with the default level for the asked questions
(high priority installs in D-I jargon)
tasksel
iso-codes
console-data
popularity-contest
level 3
-------
All packages that display something translatable during default
priority installs of the desktop and laptop tasks
menu
xorg
exim4
level 4
-------
All packages that display something translatable during default
priority installs of tasks except desktop and laptop.
samba
level 5
-------
"Important" packages, kept in D-I levels for historical purposes
newt
aptitude
console-common
dictionaries-common
debconf (programs)
dpkg
apt
debconf (debconf)
NEW STATUS PAGES
----------------
New status pages have been developed to reflect this.
The new status pages location is
[2] http://people.debian.org/~bubulle/d-i/translation-status.html
A completely new status page for testing is also available [3].
The scripts that generate these pages are similar to those that were
generating "seppy status pages" [4], written since 2004 by Dennis Stampfer
who I deeply thank for all his work during these years.
Dennis is having less time for this. So, I took the responsibility of
taking this over. The scripts that generate the pages are available in
scripts/l10n/l10n-stats in D-I SVN. This will make further transitions
easier in case I want to give this task to someone else.
Dennis, I suggest you shut down these pages generation as soon as you
can. I already modified the template so that the generated page
redirects to the new one (soon).
Please check everything on these status pages. Please also point me to
places where the "old" status pages are referenced. I already modified
the D-I i18n documentation [5].
In the meantime...enjoy..:-)
