## page was copied from TranslatingUbuntu/UbuntuSpecificTranslations <> ||<>|| This page discusses the order in which templates are displayed in the list of Ubuntu templates. For example: https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+lang/en_GB '''Note''': unless someone steps up to maintain it, this page is currently only meant to provide a reference to what the priorities for ordering the templates list in Launchpad are. = Goals = * Highlight Ubuntu specific translations, ones not available in upstream projects * Highlight translations with a big impact to non-English speaking users * Create a minimum set of templates that will assure a usable system * Reduce the probability of having duplicate work by translating the same string upstream and downstream = Priority policy = This is an ordered list: lower numbers in the list have a higher priority. An alternative classification method, taking into account the packages present in the default installation: 1. GUI, default, installer 9500 - 9999 1. GUI, default, Ubuntu 9000 - 9499 1. GUI, default, UNR 8500 - 8999 1. GUI, default, Mozilla 8000 - 8499 1. GUI, default, GNOME, modified 7500 - 7999 1. GUI, default, GNOME 7000 - 7499 1. GUI, default, Open``Office.org/LibreOffice 6500 - 6999 1. GUI, default, Kubuntu 6000 - 6499 1. GUI, default, KDE, modified 5500 - 5999 1. GUI, default, KDE 5000 - 5499 1. GUI, default, other 4500 - 4999 1. docs, default, Ubuntu 4000 - 4500 1. docs, default, Kubuntu 3500 - 3999 1. docs, default, Open``Office.org/LibreOffice 3000 - 3499 1. GUI, non-default, other 2500 - 2999 1. docs, non-default, Edubuntu 2000 - 2500 1. docs, non-default, other 1500 - 1999 1. CLI, default 1000 - 1499 1. CLI, non-default 0 - 999 The latter list has been used to define the policies in this document: * [[attachment:karmic-templates-priorities.csv]] ([[attachment:karmic-templates-priorities.ods|ODS format]]) `GUI` means applications with a graphical user interface, `default` means applications present in the default installation, `installer`, `Ubuntu`, `UNR` are applications specific to Ubuntu, `GNOME` + `modified` are GNOME applications with modified or additional strings from Ubuntu, the same applies for the rest of upstreams in the list. `docs` means documentation, `CLI` means command-line applications, `non-default` means applications not present in the default installation. == LiveCD templates == {{{ Rationale: * They have a shorter deadline and also are one of the first apps user gets in contact with. * A full review of the system will also include the install process * Many users just try the livecd so it's important to have the booloader translated }}} *

Those translations are Ubuntu Documentation, Ubuntu Start Page and other tools only available on the Live CD or install media. Please see the following list: || '''Name''' || '''Contact''' || '''Update notes''' || || ubuntu-docs || MatthewEast or AdiRoiban || The are manualy extracted from Rosetta and converted to xml by Matthew East <
> Usually there are 2 updates per cycle and before an export there is an announcement on the ubuntu-translators mailing list || || kubuntu-docs || [[nixternal|Richard A.
