Re: [Bug 460352] Re: Please update kubuntu-docs translation templates in Launchpad

2009-11-25 Thread Jonathan Jesse
that's the goal, to do as many bug fixes against the karmic branch as
possible and create one new upload to Rosetta instead of uploading multiple
times.  I will contact you all on #ubuntu-translators :)

(I'll need to investigate some more before replying to this)

Thanks, I have now disabled them in the web UI (Karmic and Lucid -though
they were still hidden to translators in the latter-), so that they are
not exposed for translation. In the future, when contacting the
translations team, please consider:

  * Filing a support request against the ubuntu-translations project
(https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+addquestion)
(Recommended for more technical requests)
  * Using any of the other communication channels listed here
(https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/Contact/)
  * In doubt, you can ping me (dpm) any time on IRC

I have not yet disabled them in Lucid, since:

  * They will not be exposed to translators until Alpha-3
  * If any of the new templates has got the same name as the current
ones it will be replaced on upload anyway
  * If any of the strings in the current docs is kept, the
translation can be reused.

In short, when you do the upload of the new docs, simply ping the
translation team and we'll make sure the templates are in shape.

Thanks a lot for the update on the situation of kubuntu-docs. Regarding
how you can help: simply by regular communication with the translations
team, i.e. letting us know when the first upload happens, letting us
know if there is any way we can help you, making sure that translations
are exported on NonLanguagePackDeadline and informing translators if
there have been any issues, etc.

[Bug 460352] Re: Please update kubuntu-docs translation templates in Launchpad

2009-11-14 Thread Gabor Kelemen
milestone:   none → ubuntu-10.04

Please, don't do this. This has to be fixed in an update, in Karmic. I
can't offer much help, but I'd like to say, this is a way too visible
problem to be left unfixed.

On the personal side, I tought kubuntu-docs is something worth
translating, then we put quite some effort to reach 100% - I'm sure that
ignoring this would scare off at least that new contributor, who did the
most of this work alone, and opened half the current bugs in this
package.
