Highlights
Zanata feedback survey
We are using Zanata as a official translation platform in Fedora. We need to do survey to take feedback from both translators and package maintainers. It will help us to understand need and missing feature from these different user groups. We agreed to do survey around end of august 2015.
By the next meeting we will have further updates on how we are planning to do it.
ACTION: mkim and apeter followup with lukebrooker.
L10N sprints based on F23
We discussed number of things under this topic. i.e. Minimum percentage of translations to declare particular language is supported or not. Discussed on language coordinator status.
ACTION: apeter to draft sprint proposal and send on mailing list for discussion.
Translation deadline around Beta
This was most debated topic. There is definitely need to look into this issue. Since after string freeze number of packages get updated. Its good to have some realistic and working deadline for Translation freeze. We got lots of suggestions.
ACTION: noriko to prepare draft for extending Translation deadline and send to mailing list.
G11N Infrastructure (IRC, Wiki and Ticket etc.)
We agreed to create g11n mailing list. May be we can simply add other list into g11n mailing list. Traffic on g11n mailing list will be not that high though. Also soon we will have #fedora-g11n channel.
ACTION: pravins to create g11n mailing list.
G11N FAD - proposal
Quickly we discussed idea about Globalization FAD. Requested everyone interested in attending FAD to add there name. We need to further work on budget before pushing this to Fedora council.
Next meeting
With the lots of good discussions we dropped our earlier plan of meeting once in each month. Decided to meet in 2 weeks.
