Note:

changed:
-The naming convention was 'wwwXX' to match early translation team names.
-I suggest we continue using this instead of a few new 'www-XX'.
There is currently an effort to tidy the translation team names and webpages location.

Yavor suggests we use 'www-XX' (or www-XX-YY) where XX/YY is the contry code (eg: www-fr, www-pt-br).

changed:
-
-In the long run we should manage the translation teams differently,
-so they can be stored (e.g.) at gnu.org/server/standards/translations/projectname
Translation teams will be hosted at gnu.org/server/standards/translations/projectname


Current migration plan:

- Give me a list of projects to rename (old name -> new name). Check
  whether there're project mailing lists to rename and give me a list
  too. Please also check if some projects need to be moved from 'www.gnu.org
  portion' to 'www.gnu.org translation team' project type :)

- You warn the project members and I rename the projects meanwhile.

- I disable webpages on-commit replication for translation projects
  (to avoid recreating old webpages locations during the move)

- We then send Joshua 2 lists:

  - a list of old webpage locations to remove (the nongnu.org/wwwXX
    pages, in particular)

  - the list of translation projects to map to
    http://www.gnu.org/server/standards/translations/<foo>)

- Joshua will then be able to:

  - map the list of translation projects to the new locations

  - modify new-savannah-project/new.py to handle a new 'type'
    parameter value for when we create new translation projects in the
    future.

changed:
-which includes Alex Muntada.

There is currently an effort to tidy the translation team names and webpages location.

Yavor suggests we use 'www-XX' (or www-XX-YY) where XX/YY is the contry code (eg: www-fr, www-pt-br).

I also suggest we move any old translation team project in this group type (instead of www.gnu.org portion).

Translation teams will be hosted at gnu.org/server/standards/translations/projectname

Current migration plan:

  • Give me a list of projects to rename (old name -> new name). Check whether there're project mailing lists to rename and give me a list too. Please also check if some projects need to be moved from 'www.gnu.org portion' to 'www.gnu.org translation team' project type :)

In general, translation teams are approved by the translation coordinators, which includes Yavor Doganov.
