Dear Debian maintainer,

On Saturday, January 30, 2010, I notified you of the beginning of a review 
process
concerning debconf templates for iog.

The debian-l10n-english contributors have now reviewed these templates,
and the proposed changes are attached to this bug report.

Please review the suggested changes, and if you have any
objections, let me know in the next 3 days.

However, please try to avoid uploading iog with these changes
right now.

The second phase of this process will begin on Saturday, February 20, 2010, 
when I will
coordinate updates to translations of debconf templates.

The existing translators will be notified of the changes: they will
receive an updated PO file for their language.

Simultaneously, a general call for new translations will be sent to
the debian-i18n mailing list.

Both these calls for translations will request updates to be sent as
individual bug reports. That will probably trigger a lot of bug
reports against your package, but these should be easier to deal with.

The call for translation updates and new translations will run until
about Saturday, March 13, 2010. Please avoid uploading a package with fixed or 
changed
debconf templates and/or translation updates in the meantime. Of
course, other changes are safe.

Please note that this is an approximative delay, which depends on my
own availability to process this work and is influenced by the fact
that I simultaneously work on many packages.

Around Sunday, March 14, 2010, I will contact you again and will send a final 
patch
summarizing all the updates (changes to debconf templates,
updates to debconf translations and new debconf translations).

Again, thanks for your attention and cooperation.

-_Description: Migrate old install out of '/var/www/iog/'?
- It was detected that a previous package release has data installed in the
- directory '/var/www/iog/'. The present IOG package suggests the use of
- '/var/lib/iog/' for the same purpose.
+_Description: Migrate old install out of /var/www/iog/?
+ A previous package release has left data installed in the
+ /var/www/iog/ directory. Current versions of the IOG package now use
+ /var/lib/iog/ IOG data files.
  .
- Accepting migration will move all old network data to the new location.
+ If you choose this option, all existing network data will be moved
+ to the new location.

- By changing the directory pointers to '/var/lib/iog' in the configuration
- '/etc/iog.cfg', and writing an alias declaration for the web server,
- IOG will then serve uninterrupted statistics also after the upgrade.
+ Consequently, directory settings in the IOG configuration file
+ (/etc/iog.cfg) will be changed to /var/lib/iog and a web server
+ alias declaration will be added so that old network statistics
+ are still published.
