| elky | for reference before we start: | 02:50 |
|---|---|---|
| IdleOne | So yeah How do we get international UW teams involved in this channel? | 02:50 |
| elky | <elky> we really need to find a good way to bring all the international UW groups in to the folds | 02:50 |
| elky | <IdleOne> yes I agree, the language barrier does limit access for a lot of women I am sure | 02:50 |
| elky | <pleia2> do any exist yet? | 02:50 |
| elky | <IdleOne> I don't have any idea how we could accomplish that | 02:50 |
| elky | I think there's some channels | 02:50 |
| * elky goes to play scour the channel list | 02:50 | |
| IdleOne | ok so /list was not helpful :/ and ugly looking to boot | 02:52 |
| IdleOne | heh | 02:52 |
| pleia2 | probably want to /msg alis | 02:52 |
| elky | xchat being graphical it's a bit easier to work with | 02:52 |
| pleia2 | but alis would only have registered channels, of course | 02:53 |
| elky | the problem is that "woman" isn't the same in all languages, funnily enough | 02:53 |
| pleia2 | of course | 02:53 |
| IdleOne | well in french it is femme | 02:55 |
| IdleOne | but even that does not mean they have the word "woman" in the name | 02:55 |
| IdleOne | guess a thread on the loco teams mailing list might be a start asking people to join here | 02:56 |
| elky | I spot none in the list. I'd expect there to be at least one for de, es, fr, pt as they have extensive sub-namespaces, but there is nothing visible for those | 02:59 |
| IdleOne | tatica1 from the -hn team is go to person according to magifab | 03:00 |
| IdleOne | I could send a message asking her to join here and perhaps invite people she knows who are interrested | 03:00 |
| IdleOne | magicfab* | 03:01 |
| elky | I think we need to have a basic plan of what we want to ask of people before we go asking them | 03:01 |
| IdleOne | elky: yup, good idea | 03:01 |
| elky | we need a better way of organising the wiki translating too | 03:02 |
| elky | being monolingual means that my best guess wasn't really best anything :P | 03:02 |
| pleia2 | yeah, we should ask a translations person | 03:03 |
| * pleia2 doesn't know either | 03:03 | |
| elky | I think what we want is an internationalization sub team | 03:03 |
| * pleia2 nods | 03:03 | |
| IdleOne | ok so basically a carbon copy of the wiki in different languages? | 03:04 |
| elky | IdleOne, ideally, yes. | 03:04 |
| elky | we may want to start it as a project in launchpad even, for managing it | 03:04 |
| * IdleOne will begin work on the french translation and ask issyl0 if she would like to help out :) | 03:04 | |
| elky | \o/ | 03:05 |
| IdleOne | not tonight though :P | 03:05 |
| IdleOne | but put me down for that | 03:05 |
| IdleOne | I would also ask that you and pleia2 kick me in the butt now and then if I begin to slack | 03:05 |
| elky | if youse can get a good skeleton structure, then we'll be rolling | 03:05 |
| IdleOne | :) | 03:05 |
| pleia2 | IdleOne: mission accepted :P | 03:05 |
| IdleOne | you been trying to get to kick me for years now :P | 03:06 |
| elky | Also, an internationalisation footer to include in to the pages, so people can click a flag and be directed to their translation would /rock/ | 03:06 |
| pleia2 | the wiki has some #header things to help with language somehow | 03:06 |
| pleia2 | but that's all voodoo to me | 03:06 |
| elky | pleia2, we need to find someone whose used it before then :) | 03:06 |
| IdleOne | wiki magic is voodoo to me also but I can learn. | 03:07 |
| * pleia2 nods | 03:07 | |
| elky | i just find stuff that looks nice and steal it | 03:07 |
| elky | this might be a bit beyond that though | 03:07 |
| IdleOne | we might need to revise English, please | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | #ubuntu-women is an English language channel. If you speak in another language in #ubuntu-women, you will be redirected to the appropriate Ubuntu channels in other languages. | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | to make it a little more inclusive somehow | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | another thing to figure out | 03:10 |
| IdleOne | or more tollerant of other languages with enphasis on english | 03:11 |
| elky | well, we'd have to make some sub-channels. this is why a sub-team would be worthwhile | 03:12 |
| maco | we've let other languages go when we had someone who we trust that speaks that language around | 03:12 |
| maco | like russian when LucidFox is around | 03:12 |
| IdleOne | maco: true | 03:12 |
| elky | yeah | 03:12 |
| maco | (figuring if they new person with another language was misbehaving, our trusted person would speak up regarding how it translates) | 03:12 |
| IdleOne | would I need to re-upload all the attachments also for the french version or will the links still work? | 03:32 |
| IdleOne | http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Fran%C3%A7ais French version started :) | 03:38 |

| czajkowski | aloha | 06:31 |
| jussi01 | Morning all! | 06:39 |
| Dront-ru | ?!! | 09:14 |
| Dront-ru | au-au | 09:14 |
| rww | o.O | 09:16 |
| issyl0 | IdleOne: depends what you're translating, but probably, yeah, thanks! | 09:46 |
| issyl0 | win 5 | 09:47 |
| issyl0 | Grr | 09:47 |
| Tm_T | hi | 10:35 |
| lauraczajkowski | aloha | 10:38 |
| Pendulum | hiya lauraczajkowski :) | 10:39 |
| Pendulum | how's the global jam going? | 10:39 |
| lauraczajkowski | great | 10:41 |
| lauraczajkowski | 26 here so far | 10:41 |
| lauraczajkowski | I'll try and tweet and pics when I can and when we get the streaming up I'll poke folks | 10:43 |
| lauraczajkowski | :) | 10:43 |
| IdleOne | issyl0: this is what i could use help with http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Fran%C3%A7ais | 11:47 |
| elky | IdleOne, i think one of the first things you need to do is take a copy of the nav include and translate /that/ | 11:55 |
| elky | otherwise you're not going to have the glue | 11:55 |
| IdleOne | elky: yup. all I did yesterday was copy the page and upload the images. | 11:56 |
| IdleOne | this weekend is a bit of a busy one so I will actually get started on it during the week. I am also going to ask/mention it to the ubuntu-qc folks today at the Jam. | 11:57 |
| elky | whee! | 11:57 |
| IdleOne | :) | 11:57 |
| elky | the folks there going "but it's so confusing gimme something eeeeeasy" should go fine with it, so long as they're not douchey | 11:58 |
| IdleOne | elky: sorry you lost me there :/ | 12:02 |
| elky | IdleOne, at the jam. if it's a typical gathering of this nature you'll have a few people who come along to try and help but end up just flailing | 12:04 |
| IdleOne | elky: I will mention it to them and give the link. anybody who wants to help is welcome. Even if all they do is translate one sentence it will be great | 12:06 |
| IdleOne | I am wondering is there a way to set it so edits to the page need to be approved? | 12:07 |
| elky | Yeah, that's kinda a problem with this kind of translating. | 12:07 |
| elky | IdleOne, maybe dropping in to the translators channel and asking advice? | 12:09 |
| IdleOne | elky: I am asking because with a project like UW it of course attracts a lot of trolls and would hate to see some "stupid" translations put up :/ | 12:10 |
| elky | Yeah, I know why you're asking. I just don't have the answer. | 12:10 |
| elky | Of all the people who would, the people in the translators channel would, though. | 12:10 |
| elky | or heck, the moinmoin channel even | 12:11 |
| elky | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Translation | 12:13 |
| IdleOne | thank you | 12:13 |
| IdleOne | I will look into it | 12:13 |
| elky | docs team seems to use rosetta ok by the looks of that page :-/ | 12:14 |
| akgraner | *yawns* Good Morning and Happy Global Jam Weekend :-) | 13:57 |
| IdleOne | Morning :) and same to you | 13:58 |
| akgraner | thanks :-) | 14:00 |
| Pendulum | hiya | 14:28 |
| akgraner | Pendulum, how's you today? | 14:32 |
| akgraner | So any one want to pick a wiki page to work on )if it needs it and tweak if in support and participation in Global Jam :-) | 14:33 |
| Pendulum | akgraner: sadly woke up quite ill :( | 14:35 |
| akgraner | Pendulum, :-( | 14:35 |
| akgraner | I hope you feel better and it's nothing to serious | 14:35 |
| Pendulum | yeah, I'm going to try to maybe get some jam stuff done later, but I'm not pushing it | 14:35 |
| akgraner | no your health is so much more important | 14:37 |
| switchgirl | sudo shutdown -h +25 going down for earth hour | 19:20 |
