j1mc | hi adiroiban and adiroiban_ | 05:38 |
adiroiban | j1mc: :) | 05:38 |
adiroiban | hi | 05:38 |
j1mc | would you like to talk now? | 05:38 |
adiroiban | yep | 05:38 |
j1mc | ok... i'm getting another look at the bug report | 05:39 |
adiroiban | the idea is just to have a quick chat | 05:39 |
j1mc | ok | 05:39 |
adiroiban | and see what is the current status and what we can do / help | 05:39 |
j1mc | i'm going to be rebasing the xubuntu docs off of the current ubuntu docs | 05:39 |
adiroiban | i have exported the translations from Launchpad | 05:39 |
j1mc | so i'll need to get in some big changes before translations should start | 05:40 |
adiroiban | and now I'm working at creating a script for doing all the transtlation and html generation from a bzr branch | 05:40 |
j1mc | cool. :) | 05:40 |
adiroiban | j1mc: are you still going to use docbook ? | 05:40 |
j1mc | yes | 05:40 |
adiroiban | ok. in this case I will create a folder structure similar to ubuntu-docs | 05:41 |
adiroiban | so that we can share some scripts | 05:41 |
j1mc | cool - do you want to use xubuntu-specific folder or document names? | 05:42 |
adiroiban | the idea is to have similar lib and script folders | 05:42 |
adiroiban | as for ubuntu-docs | 05:43 |
adiroiban | no need to be identical...but try to keep them close | 05:43 |
j1mc | so david's email about prepending the source package name only applies to the translation templates? | 05:43 |
adiroiban | j1mc: yep... and only for the big list from Ubuntu | 05:44 |
adiroiban | since we will now have xubuntu-docs translations in a dedicated project | 05:44 |
adiroiban | we don't need to append xubuntu-docs | 05:44 |
j1mc | ... ok. i think xubuntu-docs won't have the same issues now... because they are in universe. | 05:45 |
j1mc | should i let you know when i've merged in the ubuntu docs, and have gotten things ready to start some translations? | 05:45 |
j1mc | should i use the "status" portion of each document to indicate if something is ready for translation? | 05:46 |
adiroiban | j1mc: what do you mean my "merged in the ubuntu docs" ? | 05:46 |
j1mc | i'm going to rebase xubutu docs off of the current ubuntu docs | 05:46 |
j1mc | so i will be throwing out a good chunk of xubuntu content at the start | 05:46 |
adiroiban | j1mc: ok. that will be much easier for translatoins... most probably the translations script are already in place | 05:47 |
j1mc | yes | 05:47 |
adiroiban | we just need to take care of generating the required html files... as ubuntu-docs uses xml | 05:47 |
adiroiban | but I did that for kubuntu-docs | 05:47 |
adiroiban | well | 05:47 |
adiroiban | then | 05:48 |
j1mc | yes - xubuntu docs will only be output to html | 05:48 |
adiroiban | as soon as you have pushed the new xubuntu-docs | 05:48 |
j1mc | but ... i don't want people to start translating until i get things in decent shape, does that make sense? | 05:48 |
j1mc | otherwise, they'll be wasting their time | 05:48 |
adiroiban | let me know and I will do the required steps for enabling translations | 05:48 |
adiroiban | and generating the translated html files | 05:49 |
j1mc | ok - it will be at leasta few weeks | 05:49 |
adiroiban | j1mc: sure. usualy the announcemnet for translators is done only after doc string freeze | 05:50 |
adiroiban | but meanwhile we can prepare the required infrastructure | 05:50 |
j1mc | ok - thanks. that sounds good. i'd still like to get things done in advance of string freeze... i think there will be more xubuntu stuff to translate this time. | 05:50 |
adiroiban | great. | 05:51 |
adiroiban | than I will wait for the new xubuntu-docs branch for lucid to be pushed | 05:51 |
adiroiban | then I will wait for the new xubuntu-docs branch for lucid to be pushed | 05:51 |
j1mc | anything else that you want to discuss for now? | 05:51 |
adiroiban | nope | 05:52 |
adiroiban | I just wanted to know what are your plans | 05:52 |
shaunm | j1mc: do you guys use xml2po for translations on this stuff? | 05:52 |
adiroiban | and see what I should do next | 05:52 |
adiroiban | shaunm: yep | 05:52 |
shaunm | cool | 05:52 |
j1mc | shaunm: yes... | 05:52 |
adiroiban | j1mc: I was not sure if you are using docbook or mallard | 05:53 |
j1mc | i'm going to use mallard for the xfce documentation for now | 05:53 |
adiroiban | but if you are going with something similar to ubuntu-docs , everhing should be fine | 05:54 |
j1mc | and will look to use it for xubuntu documentation in the future | 05:54 |
shaunm | I only ask because we'll probably be moving xml2po out of gnome-doc-utils, in part to encourage more widespread use | 05:54 |
j1mc | but not during this release cycle | 05:54 |
shaunm | but it does't seem like the packaging is an issue for you | 05:54 |
j1mc | shaunm: yeah, i think having xml2po separated out might be helpful for the xfce guys for now. | 05:55 |
adiroiban | shaunm: if you want to help with packaging there is place you can help | 05:55 |
j1mc | shaunm: i'm in favor of the new naming conventions you've mentioned. | 05:55 |
adiroiban | shaunm: just ignore my last statement :) | 05:55 |
j1mc | i've just been on vacation, so hadn't responded | 05:55 |
j1mc | adiroiban: i'll be in touch when xubuntu-docs are ready | 05:57 |
adiroiban | j1mc: ok. np | 05:57 |
shaunm | cool | 05:58 |
j1mc | thanks for your help, adi. looks like this is going to be a good release for translations | 05:58 |
shaunm | ok, bed time for shaunm | 05:58 |
j1mc | later, shaunm | 05:58 |
adiroiban | j1mc: I hope so :) | 05:58 |
adiroiban | j1mc: I will also go to sleep soon | 05:59 |
j1mc | 'night, adiroiban | 06:01 |
j1mc | i'm off to bed, too. | 06:01 |
j1mc | goodnight, all | 06:03 |
