openSUSE Globalization/Internationalization/Localization

by Tony Su

Hello, Not sure exactly who to talk to, but felt this was a possible place to suggest/ask. During my recent research into providing multi-lingual capabilities to a mobile openSUSE application, I determined what is likely current "Best Practice" while also exploring pretty much most of the history of what has been "Standard Operating Practice" leading up to now. I determined that until a couple years ago, there were movements and enormous efforts dedicated to creating custom solutions for each application, although there were efforts to standardize rormats and methods(eg i18n), there was still the problem building a library of translations. Then, enter the major Search Engines. Although some Search Engines like Yahoo created tools like Babelfish more than a decade ago, only recently the leading Search Engines(primarily Google, and recently Microsoft) have recognized the treasure trove of multi-lingual data they store and also recognized their own needs to serve a multi-lingual world. That led to exposing their data for 3rd party use through APIs and in some cases even self-contained software components. Of course, this should be of extreme interest to a collection of Products and Services like SUSE and openSUSE... and also the way that different people communciate within openSUSE on Mailing Lists, Wikis and more... Everyone communicates using their own language but that always excludes people using other languages. Our Forums are segregated by language, the wisdom and knowledge in one forum isn't available to any in another language. A supposed International mailing list like openSUSE Marketing is only in English, and if someone actually posts in another language it's unlikely most people on the List would understand the post... All those and much more should be addressable by a comprehensive effort to integrate State of Art multi-lingual tools, fully integrated into Products (like the openSUSE OS), Services (like the Open Build Service), and communications (like Mail Lists and Help Forums). To see only a simple example of what I'm describing, you can see the demo I quickly whipped up at http://putztzu.github.com/demos/opensuse-translate.html For that demo, I used Google's translation service which supports over 60 languages. I can guarantee you I don't personally write or speak nearly all of them but anything I write using that technology would be instantly understood by practically the entire world's population. BTW - This particular demo also supports dynamic (changing) data in any variety of source language (the original text doesn't have to be just one language or any specified language). Based on the openSUSE mailing list archives, it also looks like the openSUSE OS struggles to be available in only a half dozen languages... Wouldn't it be cool to support practically any language in the world instead? If this is something openSUSE would like to explore and implement, I'm willing to manage an effort to implement full worldwide globalization in all openSUSE products and services... Of course something like this would be very big -- Although it would require considerable effort and collaboration, and of course touches just about everything about openSUSE, I consider this very achievable. Am open to building a roadmap, identifying necessary legals, people, projects and people who would need to be brought into such an effort. I feel I have a suitable background for managing this kind of project, over 10 years Project Management, Network Architect and Developer building cutting edge and bleeding edge software solutions, typically including mobile devices and distributed solutions involving data translations and Business Intelligence.

12.2 Wallpaper Artwork Submission Is Over - Voting Open

by andi robert

Hello my dear friends of the community Our wallpaper submission deadline for openSUSE 12.2 is now over. We asked a few of our artists to help us create a good selection of wallpapers for the upcoming release. Our deadline was fixed very early since the wallpaper is has become a key element in creating derivative artwork, such as Twitter banners, Facebook profile pictures, DVD sleeves and many other things. Hence our early date, we wanted to work on our artwork early enough so that we can make more derivative artwork faster and with improved quality. We understand that there may be people in the community who have worked on wallpapers for 12.2 and have not yet submitted them to the wallpaper artwork page located here http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Wallpapers If you know of anyone who is worked on a wallpaper and would like to submit them, please let us know via email. You can reply to this email to let us know as well. That way we can include everyone who wanted to give this contest a try. If no there are no replies by Monday January 23, 2012, we will assume that such wallpapers cannot make it into the contest. Another change we made this time is that we will choose one default wallpaper and then two other wallpapers as extras in case users would not want to use the default wallpaper. For this I am trying to find out what packages can carry the default wallpaper and what package can carry the other 2 wallpapers chosen. Please, if you know, post it on this email thread. I believe coolo might now, would you let us know what is more recommendable in case we want to include more wallpapers? As usual, you can review the wallpapers on the page mentioned above and start voting just like it was done last time. One more thing, thank you so much artists for your great and valuable work. openSUSE should look pretty awesome after your contributions made it to the release. Thank you again. PS: My emails are imperfect. I may have omitted important information. If so, please add it to this thread. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+owner(a)opensuse.org

[mom] We'll leave this town tonight

by Henne Vogelsang

Hey Peepz, just like with the IRC channel we have decided to close this list down and use opensuse-project for our communication in the future. This will make for one communication channel less you have to follow and will expose the stuff we do a bit more. Please tag messages that are specifically for your fellow team members with the prefix [boosters] in the subject. I will close this list on the 15th of November 12:00 UTC. Have fun over there :) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE http://www.hennevogel.de Everybody has a plan, until they get hit. - Mike Tyson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-boosters+owner(a)opensuse.org
