[02:50] for reference before we start: [02:50] So yeah How do we get international UW teams involved in this channel? [02:50] we really need to find a good way to bring all the international UW groups in to the folds [02:50] yes I agree, the language barrier does limit access for a lot of women I am sure [02:50] do any exist yet? [02:50] I don't have any idea how we could accomplish that [02:50] I think there's some channels [02:50] * elky goes to play scour the channel list [02:52] ok so /list was not helpful :/ and ugly looking to boot [02:52] heh [02:52] probably want to /msg alis [02:52] xchat being graphical it's a bit easier to work with [02:53] but alis would only have registered channels, of course [02:53] the problem is that "woman" isn't the same in all languages, funnily enough [02:53] of course [02:55] well in french it is femme [02:55] but even that does not mean they have the word "woman" in the name [02:56] guess a thread on the loco teams mailing list might be a start asking people to join here [02:59] 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 [03:00] tatica1 from the -hn team is go to person according to magifab [03:00] I could send a message asking her to join here and perhaps invite people she knows who are interrested [03:01] magicfab* [03:01] I think we need to have a basic plan of what we want to ask of people before we go asking them [03:01] elky: yup, good idea [03:02] we need a better way of organising the wiki translating too [03:02] being monolingual means that my best guess wasn't really best anything :P [03:03] yeah, we should ask a translations person [03:03] * pleia2 doesn't know either [03:03] I think what we want is an internationalization sub team [03:03] * pleia2 nods [03:04] ok so basically a carbon copy of the wiki in different languages? [03:04] IdleOne, ideally, yes. [03:04] 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 :) [03:05] \o/ [03:05] not tonight though :P [03:05] but put me down for that [03:05] I would also ask that you and pleia2 kick me in the butt now and then if I begin to slack [03:05] if youse can get a good skeleton structure, then we'll be rolling [03:05] :) [03:05] IdleOne: mission accepted :P [03:06] you been trying to get to kick me for years now :P [03:06] 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] the wiki has some #header things to help with language somehow [03:06] but that's all voodoo to me [03:06] pleia2, we need to find someone whose used it before then :) [03:07] wiki magic is voodoo to me also but I can learn. [03:07] * pleia2 nods [03:07] i just find stuff that looks nice and steal it [03:07] this might be a bit beyond that though [03:10] we might need to revise English, please [03:10] #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] to make it a little more inclusive somehow [03:10] another thing to figure out [03:11] or more tollerant of other languages with enphasis on english [03:12] well, we'd have to make some sub-channels. this is why a sub-team would be worthwhile [03:12] we've let other languages go when we had someone who we trust that speaks that language around [03:12] like russian when LucidFox is around [03:12] maco: true [03:12] yeah [03:12] (figuring if they new person with another language was misbehaving, our trusted person would speak up regarding how it translates) [03:32] would I need to re-upload all the attachments also for the french version or will the links still work? [03:38] http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Fran%C3%A7ais French version started :) === ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-women-project to: This Channel is LOGGED | http://women.ubuntu.com | support (mostly) at #ubuntu | channel guidelines: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/IrcGuidelines | Next Meeting: 8 April @ 1200UTC agenda: http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Meetings/April2010/Agenda | "How I discovered Ubuntu" Winners! http://is.gd/aVglk [05:36] wow [05:36] still no women in sight [06:31] aloha [06:39] Morning all! [09:14] ?!! [09:14] au-au [09:16] o.O [09:46] IdleOne: depends what you're translating, but probably, yeah, thanks! [09:47] win 5 [09:47] Grr [10:35] hi [10:38] aloha [10:39] hiya lauraczajkowski :) [10:39] how's the global jam going? [10:41] great [10:41] 26 here so far [10:43] I'll try and tweet and pics when I can and when we get the streaming up I'll poke folks [10:43] :) [11:47] issyl0: this is what i could use help with http://wiki.ubuntu-women.org/Fran%C3%A7ais [11:55] 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] otherwise you're not going to have the glue [11:56] elky: yup. all I did yesterday was copy the page and upload the images. [11:57] 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] whee! [11:57] :) [11:58] the folks there going "but it's so confusing gimme something eeeeeasy" should go fine with it, so long as they're not douchey [12:02] elky: sorry you lost me there :/ [12:04] 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 [12:06] 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 [12:07] I am wondering is there a way to set it so edits to the page need to be approved? [12:07] Yeah, that's kinda a problem with this kind of translating. [12:09] IdleOne, maybe dropping in to the translators channel and asking advice? [12:10] 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] Yeah, I know why you're asking. I just don't have the answer. [12:10] Of all the people who would, the people in the translators channel would, though. [12:11] or heck, the moinmoin channel even [12:13] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DocumentationTeam/Translation [12:13] thank you [12:13] I will look into it [12:14] docs team seems to use rosetta ok by the looks of that page :-/ [13:57] *yawns* Good Morning and Happy Global Jam Weekend :-) [13:58] Morning :) and same to you [14:00] thanks :-) [14:28] hiya [14:32] Pendulum, how's you today? [14:33] 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 :-) [14:35] akgraner: sadly woke up quite ill :( [14:35] Pendulum, :-( [14:35] I hope you feel better and it's nothing to serious [14:35] yeah, I'm going to try to maybe get some jam stuff done later, but I'm not pushing it [14:37] no your health is so much more important [19:20] sudo shutdown -h +25 going down for earth hour
