Hello, Earlier today we had the monthly Bug Squad meeting[1] that was postponed to this date last week. We discussed the interaction between the Ubuntu Bug Squad[2] and the Ubuntu Translations[3] teams. The reasons for a separate Launchpad project for translations bug are on the wiki pages of the Translations team[4], as well as a summary of the discussion held previously on these maillists[5].
During this meeting the following policy was determined: all bugs in Ubuntu related to translation should get a separate task for the 'ubuntu-translations' project. This task can be added immediately when the bug has been identified as a translations bug. Next to the usual reports about string fixes, typos and others this also includes bugs regarding the Launchpad integration. When a bug's task for the 'ubuntu' project is marked as 'Triaged' the people working on the bugs in 'ubuntu-translations' know that they can start working on it. When they've fixed the issue in the translations the 'ubuntu' task can be used like any other bug report that is linked to an issue upstream. Members of Ubuntu Bug Control[6] and the Ubuntu Translations Coordinators[7], a member of the 'ubuntu-translations-bugsupervisors' team[8], which is the Bug Supervisor for the 'ubuntu-translations' project. They have the permission to set 'ubuntu-translation' tasks to Triaged as well. A new section has been added to Bugs/HowToTriage[9] explaining how translation bugs should be treated. David Planella suggested to remove the reference to Launchpad integration in the documentation in order to make the text less confusing for new triagers. Do you agree? Any feedback on the description would be appreciated.
