debian-refcard: package upload?

[Holger Wansing]

Hi all,

in the past months I updated the debian refcard package, and poked
translators to get updated translations as well. We even got a new translation,
Serbian !

Now it seems there is no more progress on this, although there are some
translation updates missing (Arabic, Galician, Lithuanian, Romanian, Turkish
and Ukranian).
But I think it's not worth it to delay an upload even longer.

All the other things are done, so it's time to think about an upload...
I have just updated the latest version date to 2016-07-09.

Is there something else needed for an upload?
Would someone please take care of this?

I would do, but probably not before the 20th of this month.

That would be perfectly fine for me.

Sorry, I slacked 10 days already.

One question to Holger and the -doc team:

Would it be OK, if I move the package source to a git repository, e.g. collab-maint?

If yes, I would do this change first.

Cheers

FWIW: I, for one, would be very happy.

If that makes an benefit in some way I have no objections, of course.

Thanks for checking! Everything is now in
https://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/refcard.git
Whenever you need a new version, just drop me a line.

Cheers

Btw. it looks like only three languages, "ar", "he", and "ml",
are handled by xmlroff, while all others are handled by dblatex.
Maybe we can try to use dblatex for everything and simplify the
Makefile and some point.

Yes, I made some progress on moving languages from xmlroff to dblatex,
leaving just that three on xmlroff.

But as already stated before, I am lacking special dblatex knowledge, to
do more advanced work on this.
And additionally, I have no active translators for ar and ml. So I have
no proofreader, which why I don't want to perform much aggressive changings
on that languages ATM.

ar and he are also special cases, because of RTL.
And ml has never been well supported by translator, there have always been only
some stubs around for ml. It is 30t, 1f, 161u ATM. So we could think about
removing ml?

Maybe we need another "call for translators", esp. for ar and he.
And, yes, ar and he will not work easily without expert help!

Yes, just keep it under po4a/, but remove it from the Makefile.

he is fully translated. And he translator was very responsive, so there would
be no problem with he.
On ar: yes, I wanted ping the ar translator again.

Ok.


PS: I have no write access to collab-maint ATM, but I have already
requested for it.

I got a negative answer from ar translator, due to lack of time.

Ok.

I renamed po4a/ml.po into po4a/ml.po~
So ml is no longer being built. The languages are not separately listed in
the Makefile; it's just
PO_FILES=$(wildcard po4a/*.po)

I have been told that as a DD I have write access to collab-maint, just
need to use holgerw instead of holger-guest. And - yes, it works that way.
So write access to repo works again.
