You only replied to me Tim, not the list :P ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Timothy Arceri <[email protected]> Date: 1 January 2013 18:23 Subject: Re: [Papercuts-ninja] Localisation issues as paper cuts To: Chris Wilson <[email protected]>
I dont see why we are restricting papercuts like this. I have helped fix a number of locale issues through papercut reports, either by allocating the bug to the right place in launchpad or by reporting it to the right place upstream as well as creating patches. Maybe its just me but I really dont like the restrictions being placed on this project e.g no more kde, no locale bugs isn't that what caused the project to die off in the first place no bugs for people work on? We are still yet to have targeted 100 for this release (we are almost there but not yet) if anything we should be removing limitations and widening the project that way we also widen the range of potential contributers to the project. Anyway this is all just my opinion, I'm keen to see what other people think.

It reads: *Localisation issues are not paper cuts. For a bug to be a paper cut, it must affect the majority of average users and localisation issues will only affect users in that locale.* * * A caveat to that reads: *Issues affecting any English text, such as badly worded app descriptions in the Software Centre, can be considered valid paper cuts since the English text string are used as the baseline for all localisations. If the English is wrong, then the translation will be wrong.* * * Does anyone have any issues with this? Thanks, Chris
