sianiscan somebody setup bzr translation export of ubuntu docs?14:05
sianisadiroiban: could you do it?14:22
mdkesianis: what do you want to do?14:22
sianismdke: a bzr branch where I can reach trasnlations of the ubuntu documentation14:23
sianishttp://blog.launchpad.net/general/exporting-translations-to-a-bazaar-branch14:23
mdkesianis: have you seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Translation ?14:24
mdkeI don't think automatic translation export works for translations of packages14:24
mdkeit only works for projects14:25
sianismdke: :(14:25
sianiswill this thing change?14:26
mdkethe problem is that we host our branches in a different place to where we do the translations14:26
mdkewe host them in projects, and do the translations in the package14:26
mdkeit might change in the future, but it's not imminent, I don't think14:27
mdkeI might talk to the Rosetta developers about it14:28
mdkethey will probably say that we should be using projects for translations and not packages14:29
sianis:)14:29
mdkeadiroiban, Gwaihir - let me know if you have any thoughts about this14:30
Gwaihirmdke: having the export feature with docs translations would be cool, but don't know if it's going to work as we would like to14:52
GwaihirI think it will export the files in one single directory, where we need locale specific directory14:53
Gwaihirso... there's always some manual work to do...14:53
mdkeGwaihir: we keep the files in a single directory too ($doc/po)14:56
mdkeGwaihir: having said that, it might be less convenient for translators to have the translations away from other Ubuntu packages14:56
GwaihirI thought they were separate directory... anyway, it's better to have them under Ubuntu from a translators perspective15:01
mdkeGwaihir: that's what I'm thinking15:03
lukjad007Where do I find the syntax so that you can click a link in the wiki and the program installs from the repos?19:15
* lukjad007 was reading it earlier, but cannot find it now19:15
starcraftmanlukjad007: ah, that's apt url stuff I think. See here. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptUrl19:17
lukjad007Thanks!19:17
starcraftmanlukjad007: good reminder, I should update my pages to use that...19:17
lukjad007starcraftman Yeah. I'm updating a page to use that, but couldn't find it. :P19:18
mdkestarcraftman, lukjad007 - have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide/WritingGuide for the recommended use of apturl on the help wiki22:18
starcraftmanmdke: ah, thanks. I've read those pages, must have simply missed it.22:21
* Rocket2DMn had no idea that page existed22:21
starcraftmanHehehe22:22
Rocket2DMnmdke, i implemented the List pages for Tags last night22:22
Rocket2DMnalso blew away all but a handful of PageDiscussions22:23
Rocket2DMnmost of them had almost nothing on them22:23
mdkeRocket2DMn: yes, I saw that, nice job22:27
Rocket2DMnmdke, one that i didnt delete was this, which marc put together some time ago - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide/Categories/PageDiscussion22:29
Rocket2DMnwasnt sure if there was stuff on there we wanted to keep, or move, or discuss further22:30
mdkeseems to pretty much overlap with the work he is doing at the moment22:31
mdkeI'd maybe ask him whether he can merge it with that, or delete it22:31
mdkegtg for now22:34
Rocket2DMnok, thanks, see ya22:35
lukjad007mdke Thanks22:44
