True - that was added recently, and will be added to pootle later today or tomorrow. > 2) The new download page is only available on the English page and still > not localizable or available to l10n sites and in Pootle; Also true - we wanted to sort out bugs in terms of usability with that one first, finalize on the design before deploying it to others. And while I mightnot have replied to your post in particular, I'm pretty sure that has been stated in the past already. > 3) Since 2) we are stuck with "old" download page that has only one version > so we duplicate this page for both stable and fresh downloads; but there is > a caveat: the substring " (stable)" is present on both pages, Both are stable versions as opposed to the development/pre-release ones (AKA beta/rc) > so you can > see how the "fresh" page looks now on the Slovenian and German sites (with > word stable written in the title) - advertising the "fresh" version as the > "stable" one: > https://de.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/ > https://sl.libreoffice.org/prenosi/najnovejsi-libreoffice/ There is fresh and still, not fresh and stable > 4) The donation page is also an old one, not available for l10n, so we have > to use old donation page on l10n sites. > I think this is the issue in redmine, there might be more: > https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/2462 Same reason basically as with the donate page, we wanted to run some tests first to make sure it doesn't mess up with the donations that pay all the bills... I think we can have the strings of the donate page in pootle same time as the one with the archive. > 5) Someone deleted localized Slovenian pages for Imprint, Privacy Policy > and Credits and replaced them with direct links to English pages, also they > appear in the Slovenian menu as "Imprint", "Privacy Policy" and "Credits".

There's history of previous versions in silverstripe, so no reason to be all that upset about changing of pagetype. furthermore there is waybackmachine or similar, that might also have your page indexed... > 6) I really support this 3-year old ticket, it is essential for us l10n > site maintainers: > https://redmine.documentfoundation.org/issues/901 We had something like this in the past and it wasn't really used, but I'll look into that once more. ciao Christian -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: l10n+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
