Hi Michael,
I really appreciate WeeklyOSM, I always read it and sure it has more
information than the OSMF blog.
I didn't say WeeklyOSM is less important than OSMF blog. I just have a
opinion that it is important to produce more content in Portuguese,
because I estimate that at least 70% of the links in WeeklyOSM are to
texts written in English.
Congratulations for your work on WeeklyOSM!
Best regards,
wille

Pouca gente sabe, mas as postagens do blog oficial da OSM Foundation
também podem ser traduzidas: https://blog.openstreetmap.org/
Eu consideraria mais útil fazer a tradução desse blog do que do
WeeklyOSM, pois este é apenas links para notícias e postagens sobre o
OSM e boa parte dos textos linkados estão em inglês.
It might be easier to translate the official blog posts of OSMF because
the post less than WeeklyOSM does. I think that these posts are less
valueable because they only contain official announcements like "Hey,
we
have a new tile cache server." or "Hey, we have 2 million accounts." –
these are just PR posts as every important organization does.
WeeklyOSM is something different. It is a collection of the news of
OSM,
summarizing postings at mailing lists, blogs etc. Its German part,
called "Wochennotiz" (Weekly Notes) was founded in 2010 by Marc Gehling
when everyone discussed the change from CC-BY-SA to ODbL because some
mappers in his town complained that they have not been notified about
the change. They found it difficult to get information about what's
going on at OSM community. WeeklyOSM is not a PR blog for people
outside
the community and the press; WeeklyOSM is like a weekly magazine by the
community for the community.
WeeklyOSM has a minimum quality level that's why only translation teams
with at least three members get an Wordpress account. History (the old
Weekly OSM Summary by Pascal Neis and Dennis Zielstra which was a
translation of Wochennotiz every two weeks) tells us that two people
are
not enough to do this job over a long time (> 1 year).
Best regards from Germany
