Welcome, new translators!
Welcome, new translators of Producing Open Source Software! This mailing list is the first place to ask for help with anything. (You've all received private emails with your username and password.) For some of you, your translation might already be under way. In that case, you should probably ask the people already working on it what's needed -- it may be that review is needed more than new translation.

Ari Constancio [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: It depends. Strict translation of open source would be código aberto and, indeed, it is sometimes used in institutional conferences. In ordinary conversations, I never use código aberto (always open source) but free software is translated as software livre. Karl decided to freely interchange open source software with free software, as can be seen from the title and subtitle. So, I decided to write open source software the same as free software (i.e. software livre). Confusing, right? :) You raise an interesting issue. Is every translator writing open source in the title? At least the french translation uses libre. What do you think, Karl? I think there wouldn't even be two different terms if English didn't have this stupid ambiguity. Sigh :-). But because English needed with two terms, now every language is acquiring them, even though the distinction is unnecessary. I'm not sure what to recommend, because I don't know what the two terms connote in other languages. Also, the two terms may have different relative popularity in other languages. For example, in English, the term open source has essentially won -- almost no one, outside our circle of specialists, knows what free software means. (Sorry, I know that's disappointing to some, but it's time to face the facts :-) ). But in other languages, perhaps terms like software livre are dominant and more widely used than código aberto or whatever the equivalent is for that language. You know the answer to that better than I do. I'd be fine with just software livre. Feel free to adjust the section that discusses the two English terms, to make it explain that, in English, the title of this book uses both terms, but that we may not reflect that in all languages, because there is no need to. -Karl ___ Producingoss-translators mailing list Producingoss-translators@red-bean.com http://www.red-bean.com/mailman/listinfo/producingoss-translators

Using Japanese (and other) translations in a talk.
I'll be giving a keynote talk at a large Japanese corporation (they're having a symposium on open-source and open-information systems) in two weeks. During the talk, I'm planning to discuss this translation project a bit. I'll show progress of all the translations, especially those that are nearly done. Yoshinari Takaoka, I'll mention your work in particular, since this is a Japanese company, and I'll point out that the more translators are working on it, the faster it will get done. (My hope is that some people there may get interested in helping out, or perhaps even interested in funding you.) I just wanted to let you know now, in case you had commits pending.

ProducingOSS translation ToC guideline
Ari Constancio just reminded me of something I'd been meaning to ask: Can we translate each section/chapter heading only *after* the corresponding section/chapter is finished? That way, anyone can look at the table of contents to see how far along that translation is. For example, the German version (http://producingoss.com/de/) seems to following this convention, and thus one can easily see that it is almost finished now, with only part of Chapter 9 still to do. A long time ago, I talked with a few translators privately about using this convention, but I forgot to bring it up after we created this mailing list. Sorry for the oversight. If we're agreed on this convention, I'll document it on the translations web page. Thanks, -Karl Ari Constancio [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Karl, I just watched your presentation on Principles of Participation for Open Information Communities (great!) and, concerning the ProducingOSS translation effort, I noticed you mentioned the table of contents as an indicator of translation progress.

One really simple way to do that would be to rename them to .txt files while working on them, then rename back to .xml to check in the changes. For example: 1. update (TortoiseSVN update) the files 2. rename ch00.xml to ch00.txt 3. edit ch00.txt in Word 4. rename ch00.txt back to ch00.xml 5. commit the changes Does that do the trick? -Karl ___ Producingoss-translators mailing list Producingoss-translators@red-bean.com http://www.red-bean.com/mailman/listinfo/producingoss-translators

The sentence means: Some people did not feel that free software was a political issue, and therefore disagreed with the FSF when the FSF said it *is* a political issue. However, because the FSF raised the question of political meaning, even those people who disagreed were still forced to think about the politics of the activity -- that is, even though they might not agree with the FSF that all software should be free, the FSF still caused them to ask themselves that question. So the FSF forced people to think about it in a new way, even though not all those people came to the same position as the FSF.
