Hello all together, as some of you may have noticed, I have become a member of openSUSE and therefore got an @opensuse.org email adress. You may also use the old email, but I would be glad to get openSUSE-relating emails to the new adress. Thanks a lot and have nice holidays! -- Best wishes, Okuro Oikawa aka Thomas Hofstätter ### openSUSE Member ### ### openSUSE Ambassador ### ### Member of the openSUSE Marketing Team ### ### Translator of the openSUSE Weekly News ### ### Writer of the openSUSE News (Event-Editor) ### ### http://en.opensuse.org/User:Okuro ### ### http://linuxokuro.wordpress.com/ ### ### Private Website: http://hidden-space.at.tf ### -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-translation+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-translation] Creating openSUSE 11.3 SVN branch
by Karl Eichwalder 09 Jul '10

09 Jul '10

Our develovers already branched the yast source code. To avoid confusion, I'd like to create a similar branch in our localization SVN later this week on Friday (2010-07-09). I'm not sure whether we will actually need the 11.3 branch, though. Please, keep track of translation fixes--we will need rough info about changes in case we want to publish translation online updates.

[opensuse-translation] Update gnome-packagekit.xx.po for RC2
by Rastislav Krupanský 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

Hi all. According to bnc #380665 which renames "Software Updates" to "Software Updates Preferences" we need translate this string into native languages. This change has appeared after RC1 releasing in factory build 0687 and it´s already in gnome-packagekit.xx.po file in lcn (confirmed by Vincent Untz). Could someone run update of this file to allow translation? -- S pozdravom / Best regards, Rasto -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-translation+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-translation] Joining Vietnamese translation team
by Nguyen Dinh Chau 02 Jul '10

02 Jul '10

Hello, how are you doing? I'm a volunteer from Vietnam. I want to take part in the translation process of openSUSE into my language. In the localization table I saw Vietnamese team but with no member, so I guess I should ask here. I am going to build a team of some friends who also love openSUSE and willing to help. At the moment, I am myself able to spend at least 1h a day steadily doing the task. So you can be sure that this task is seriously taken. And here are some required information: My language: Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt) My name: call me Nikkel My berlios ID: nikkel My email: chaund(a)gmail.com I'm waiting for your good news. Thanks & regards, Nikkel -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-translation+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-translation] An effort to improve the suse/openSUSE pages on Wikipedia
by Strainu 01 Jul '10

01 Jul '10

Hi all, I'm cross-posting this to both the wiki and the translation lists, as well as on the Romanian list in the hope that I will receive the broadest possible feedback. There are currently several issues with the way openSUSE is represented on non-english wikipedias: 1) There are different articles in different language (i.e. different articles for Suse Linux, openSUSE, SLES, SLED etc or just one article for all, with basically all the variations in between). 2) There is a lack of coverage for subjects related to openSUSE, like OBS, YaST, zypp etc. 3) The information in the articles might be out of date by up to several years. While I understand that it would be difficult for our global and local communities to also actively maintain the Wikipedia articles, I think we could take some steps to facilitate contributing to Wikipedia articles: 1) Find a common way to develop articles about openSUSE. 1.1 What articles should one start with (openSUSE, Suse Linux, openSUSE Project?) and what parts could get separate articles in a second/third phase? 1.2 How should all the articles relate to each other? 1.3 What resources from the openSUSE wiki could be relevant to the various articles? 1.4 How can one minimize the quantity of information that "deprecates" rapidly? 2) Make sure that relevant images from the openSUSE wiki are also available in Wikipedia. Would it be feasible to use Wikimedia Commons as a repository for some of our free images (at least the screenshots)? I know that any mediawiki installation can use commons as an image repository under certain conditions. 3) Encourage the translators to get involved in writing the Wikipedia articles in their language. How can we do that best? If an openSUSE wiki exists in that language, perhaps we could somehow keep in sync a page on the openSUSE wiki and on Wikipedia? 4) Write all of the above on an wiki page (what title should it have?) :) I'm looking forward to your ideas regarding the points raised in this email. Strainu P.S. Sorry for the poor formatting of this email, I just can't seem to get it right today :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-translation+help(a)opensuse.org
