Another related point about this release. I think we should switch
back to Transifex (from Zanata currently).
The obvious reason is that Transifex has a good community who actually
provided plentiful translations, at least for the simple strings (no
one translates the long manual page paragraphs, but I wasn't expecting
that). Zanata, well, nothing much really.
Note that Transifex is only a single instance, while Zanata has
different installations; we are using the Fedora instance, so we get
mostly Fedora translators. An idea could be move to the generic
Zanata instance on zanata.org, i.e. https://translate.zanata.org/
(which allows login using a Fedora FAS, so the current translators
could keep contributing without extra burden).
Also, what about trying to advertize it more (e.g. blog entry, post on
devel@fedora, etc)?
Also the Zanata client tools suck.
What's the problem with it? I didn't use it much, but I don't recall
particular issues.
Also, Transifex is proprietary software (closed since 2013), which
IMHO is a minus point for it.
