group agenda

Hi folks,

this group started after an IRC meeting @ #eglug some time ago, but since groups.drupal.org lacked wiki functionality we did not use it for anything.

this is a proposed short term Agenda for the group based on what we discussed in that meeting

• Gharbeia is our main translator, he has veto rights in order to have a since of consistency in the translation
• other translators can adopt a contrib modules
• Gharbeia will prepare a glossary of new terms here on the groups wiki, after an publishing the initial glossary the group is welcom to challenge and scrutinize the translations via comment section, and off course add new translations to the wiki page.
• khaled hosny will point out any conflicts between our glossary and arabeyes', and is responsible for trying to convince us that arabeyes' translation is better or convince arabeyes that our translation is better :-) there is a drupal arabeyes project that no one worked on for ages, I think drupal.org offers better infrastructure but if people think it's important to update the arabeyes CVS repository and project news then Khaled should take over that project.
• hopefully we can use this glossary to build a documentation oriented glossary similar to http://www.eglug.org/drupal_glossary
• we released a pretty good translation for 4.7 including a bunch of contrib modules and 4 RTL themes
• work now should focus on Drupal 5
• Gharbeia will start working on 5 core translation
• anyone who wants to help can pick contrib modules, let's crate a wiki page where we list important contrib modules that need to be translated, this can be based on what members of the group need or what members of the group think is important to provide for others.
• there are of course documentation, theming and development issues that we need to cover, but I'll leave those for another post.
