Hello dear i18n crowd,
If you followed the wheezy release cycle, you notice that, among many
other things, we had a hard "fight" to get 100% translation ratio for
several languages, when it comes at debconf templates.
Indeed, we managed to get this achieved for 8 languages : French,
Russian, German, Portuguese, Swedish, Czech, Spanish, Danish.
That requires following both the status of translation ratio in
testing AND the one in unstable, anticipating packages
transition...and tracking them, particularly during the freeze.
The best way to achieve this for a given language is tto try being as
close as possible of the 100% mark. Something anybody can follow from
there:
http://www.debian.org/international/l10n/po-debconf/rank
Still, monitoring the status of testing is also needed, both generally
for all languages (consider it my own job, with the great help of
David Prévot during wheezy release cycle) AND for each language (this
is the "job" of preferrably a language coordinator for each language).
I would like to make this as smooth as possible for jessie, from the
start.
So, first, I'd like to identify "candidates" for this. Of course, the
"Big 8" still qualify : I guess they'll all want to keep their 100%
mark, even if, for some of them, that basically relies on the effort
of ONE person.
Maybe a few other would like to try this. I'm mostly thinking about
languages that are "not too far" from 100% with a still active team:
Italian, Dutch, Japanese.
As a start, I can add them to the special testing tracking bot that
produces this:
http://i18n.debian.org/testing-l10n-status/podebconf-l10n-testing.txt
(see below)
Are there motivated volunteers to act as "coordinators" for these languages?
Read the database... done.
