I'm now testing openSUSE 13.1 beta1, but noticed that no documentations (opensuse-{kvm,manuals,reference..}_$LANG-*.noarch.rpm) found in repo/oss/suse/noarch directory.
yes. It has been decided to move the openSUSE documentation to http://activedoc.opensuse.org/. ActiveDoc is a new interactive openSUSE documentation platform where you can not only read the manuals, but also can edit them in WYSIWYG style. Compared to sending patches for XML sources, this will make it much easier for people outside the documentation team to participate in the openSUSE documentation. As a consequence, the openSUSE manuals will no longer be maintained from the XML sources in SVN, but rather directly on ActiveDoc. on 13.1 we have way more packages than fit on a DVD (image). Therefore it was decided to drop all manuals except the Start-Up Guide. See bugzilla: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840026 (they will be available for reading online, of course). Whether these drops also apply to the other distribution formats (e.g. FTP) IMHO remains subject of discussion. Personally I would appreciate to have documentation packages for the FTP distribution. It's possible to export HTML and PDF from ActiveDoc and package these formats.
In OBS side, opensuse-manuals_$LANG (in project "Documentation") was marked as "broken" ("Files could not be expanded..").
As for the translation, it was our plan to approach the translators soon in order to discuss on this list how to handle translations. We are currently trying to figure out how to make the transition for the translators as easy as possible. Looks like we should start this discussion now ;-) - Karl and Tomáš, would you please share what you have found out until now? Note: Ludwig, would you please subscribe to opensue-doc in order to be able to follow this discussion? Everybody: Please keep Ludwig in Cc until he subscribes to this list. -- Regards Frank Frank Sundermeyer, Technical Writer, Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, D-90409 Nuernberg Tel: +49-911-74053-0, Fax: +49-911-7417755; http://www.opensuse.org/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) "Reality is always controlled by the people who are most insane" Dogbert -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-doc+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-doc+owner@opensuse.org
