Summary

  • UDS wrap up and actions (DavidPlanella)

    • Blueprints:
      • Translations Portal Relaunch
      • Localized ISO growth
      • Translations Roundtable (placeholder for recurring actions we do on the cycle)

  • Translation dates (i.e. when to open translations, etc.) (DavidPlanella)

    • Agreed to open translations a week after Alpha 1
    • Andrej points out that translations in Oneiric haven't been copied over correctly (empty translations on Ubuntu-specific packages), so opening translations is depending on that being fixed.

  • Universe translations in Launchpad (AndrejZnidarsic)

    • We should do this in a way that we don't upset upstreams
    • Let's pick up 2 upstreams and contact pitti for the next steps on the technical side
    • David to talk to mrevell and translators regarding priorities of features.

  • Templates priority (AndrejZnidarsic)

    • Set up the priority for about 150 templates already, need to finish off other 50 before opening translations

  • List of annoying translations related launchpad bugs (AndrejZnidarsic)

    • Need better communication with developers in getting fixes applied when patches/branches are present
    • Idea: Review the list of critical bugs on each call?
    • Idea: reach out to the translators mailing list to get more people involved?

  • Exporting translations upstream (AndrejZnidarsic)

    • Regarding exports, it would be a good idea to contact upstreams to get them involved, but only when there is work being started on this from the Launchpad side.

  • How do we want to do our meetings in the future? (DavidPlanella)

    • Postponed to discussion on the mailing list

  • Ubuntu docs translations (DavidPlanella)

    • Postponed, ubuntu-help enabled in Oneiric for now

    • Follow up with more specific posts about various aspects of UTC work
    • Content should be posted on ubuntu translations portal, planet ubuntu in then shared around as much as possible.
