Hi list, PSC

Thanks to all for the efforts put in the new website. Nice work.

I didn't see any related discussion so I suppose there is no issue with that but could there be a reply whether the documentation or the Desktop would be concerned by the no-translation decision, please? Thanks.

It is still unclear to me why the decision to not translate the website, but I must admit that I'm aware of it for months so this is not the point today. I thought there would just be no translated site.

What is unclear to me in the "leaving user groups hold their translated QGIS.ORG website" is how technically user groups that would like to provide localized website would proceed. Is there any how-to? Are all the candidates able to maintain the required infrastructure and keep their website up to date? Being an enthusiast translator doesn't mean a "geek". And are we not over-complicating the system, splitting the resources we have while a centralized translation system at QGIS.ORG could benefit to everyone? How about the translation infrastructure is managed by QGIS.ORG linked to the qgis-hugo repo BUT qgis.org does not provide translated pages on the website. Translated strings are just pulled in the repo and then every user group willing to translate somehow plugs to the (forked?) repo and build the localized version they want and serve it on their own website? Is this possible?

Sorry if there have been discussions related to this I would have missed, but translators and non-English speaking users are getting confused or at least, have questions. And having a clear direction and information might help.

Kind regards,

Harrissou

Hi Tim,
thank you for information and your work.

please can you explain how content consistency will be ensured between the English original of qgis.org <http://qgis.org> and the forks of local communities who want to translate the content not only of the web pages but also of the documentation etc.?

currently, thanks to transifex, new English contents are uploaded to transifex and after translation operations would be flipped to qgis.org <http://qgis.org> translated pages e.g. qgis.org/it <http://qgis.org/it> for Italian.

how do we do that now?

thank you very much

stefano

    Hi all

    ? The new website is now online! Visit https://qgis.org to try it
    out. We
    have spent a *lot* of time trying to QA things but undoubtedly
    there will
    still be some *gremlins* in the works. Please file issues here
    <https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Hugo/issues> if you find things that are
    *substantive* issues (i.e. a broken link, spelling error) and not
    'reviews'
    of our work please. If you have other comments or suggestions for
    improvements, we much prefer that they be accompanied by *PR's* which
    implement your proposed improvements to keep our workload down and the
    issue queue short.

    ? *We would love to get some more representative
    images/screenshots for
    the front and top level pages, so PR's addressing those will be
    treated
    with priority.*

    ??Thank you so much to the Kontur team (Aliaksandra, Andrei, Nadzeya,
    Tigran, Darafei and more!), the members of the website working
    group that
    we formed, Anniina, Lova, Richard, J?rgen, Anita, Andreas. Amy,
    Thiasha,
    Jeremy Prior, and the many others (apologies for not naming you
    individually) who contributed ideas, work, and support in the process.

    ? Please note that your browser / ISP / DNS server and similar may be
    caching qgis.org <http://qgis.org> and the DNS entries related to
    it. Before reporting an
    issue:

    1. Try an anonymous browser to see if things work normally there
    2. Try clearing your cache in your browser
    3. Potentially you may need to wait a little for DNS propagation
    to complete

    ?? Please note that we made the decision NOT to translate the site
    into
    languages other than english. If you are an official country user
    group, we
    encourage you to:

    1. Advise the PSC of your intention to host a localized copy of
    the site
    2. Fork the web site repo https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Hugo
    3. Translate the content pages on your fork
    4. Host your fork on your country domain e.g. qgis.id <http://qgis.id>
    5. Advise us when your fork is online, we will cross link to your
    site from
    QGIS.org

    Thank you,

    Regards

    Tim
