[Mageia-i18n] Status of mailing list requests and blog page translations

[Wolfgang Bornath]

Hi,

here's a short one about 3 points:

1. Status of mailing list requests
2. Status of translations / accounts on blog.mageia.org
3. Blog page consistency

Here we go:

1. Mailing lists

As Michael wrote in the sysadmin list mailing list setup is almost
done, he's running tests now. So I'd like to check the status of
requests.
In the first round of requests the following lists were created:
(all with trailing @ml.mageia.org)

i18n-af
i18n-de
i18n-et
i18n-fr
i18n-nl
i18n-pt_br
i18n-pl
i18n-ru
i18n-tr

Once those are working we will start the second round of requests.
Requests have been made for

i18n-nl
i18n-ro
i18n-it
i18n-zh_tw
i18n-en

Those 20 requests I have forgotten, pls answer here in this thread.


2. Blog page

Team leaders of these languages please contact damsweb, rda  (or me)
to get your login for the admin page of your language, so you can
start to translate.
Team leaders of language teams who do not see their language in the
list of blog pages pls contact damsweb, rda (or me).


3. Consistency of the blog pages:

We should stick to simple rules to have the blog in a consistent state
for all languages:

1. The original page is the english page.
 - all language pages should resemble the English page (only in the
respective language)

2. If you want to enter local / own contents to blog.mageia.org
(something about a local Mageia event, etc.)
 - send the text in English to the blog-team
 - after the blog-team has published the text you can publish it in
your blog page as well
 - this way all other pages will know about the entry and publis it, too

I saw that Marcello has posted a blog entry in the Italian page but I
don't know what it is about. Marcello, could you please send an
English version to blog-team.

For the sake of spreading news about Mageia we should publish local
information on all blog pages as well. As example: there are very
large foreign communities living in Germany (Turkish, Italian,
Spanish, the occasional Irish and Norwegian, etc.). They will read the
blog in their language, so they will miss all local information if it
would be given on the German page only. Same applies to many other
countries.
