Our huge Drupal Dev Days Europe sprint is coming up in less than 6 weeks! Join us and buy your ticket as soon as possible.

If you cannot join and even if you can there is lots to do as always. See http://www.drupal8multilingual.org/issues/focus for some of our highest profile issues. With the menu system reworked, and all configuration having schema coverage, we need to get back to focus on our missing pieces. Schema coverage for text with formats, text context support for menu items, node base field translatability, etc.

Let's talk about our ongoing issues as well as any new things we encountered! We have tasks for all kinds of interests on all kinds of difficulty levels! All help is welcome! This meeting is lead by vijaycs85.

This IRC meeting is on the #drupal-i18n channel on IRC. See http://drupal.org/irc for more information. The time above is marked with UTC - check in your own timezone.

Meetings are regularly every other week at the same time on Wednesdays. Check out http://www.drupal8multilingual.org/events for the calendar of upcoming meetings.

We are just out of some great developments on the configuration front. Now all settings are in configuration and can be supported with configuration translation! Now we are working to add tests to cover all configuration schemas for shipped configuration. The menu system is also under some big changes, the definitions of menu items will soon change and the translatability of the items will be of crucial importance.

We resolved some issues at Drupal Global Sprint Weekend but we also found some critical ones. Finally, our huge Drupal Dev Days Europe sprint is coming up in less than 2 months as well. Lots of activity ahead of us still.

Lots of great activity is ahead of us! The day of our meeting is Drupal's 13th birthday and celebrated with a Drupal Work Party! Drupal Global Sprint Weekend is next weekend. And last but not least our Drupal Dev Days Europe sprint is coming up in a little over 2 months as well. Lots of activity ahead of us indeed.

Welcome to 2014! This is going the be the year of Drupal 8's release. Lots of exciting things ahead of us! According to @webchick, if we fix 1 beta blocker per day, we can have a Drupal 8 beta in March! Go for it! We have several areas to do cleanups and work out remaining details ourselves.

This is our last meeting for 2013!

Although we do have configuration translation UI now in core and node titles are translatable, we still have a lot of stuff to work on. More node properties, other entity types, config schema coverage, bugs with entity translation and configuration translation, etc. We have tasks for all kinds of interests on all kinds of difficulty levels! All help is welcome!

Ps. Our next meeting would fall on January 1st, but that sounds like a problem, so we'll move that one week later instead (and have two meetings in a row then).

Unlike our previous meeting which was moved to Vienna and then did not happen (due to no possibility to coordinate times with most people), this meeting is actually happening and is back online in the usual time.

We'll be out of a one day weekend sprint in Hungary (in Hungarian) and at the start of a three day sprint in Vienna when this meeting is on. I moved the meeting to the start of the Vienna sprint, so people there in person can participate easily and we can coordinate on what best to work on and divide the issues between us. We also welcome remote participation :)

We still have stuff to do to get the entity property translation features we need (and get committed) as well as make the configuration translation solution land in core. We have tasks for all kinds of interests on all kinds of difficulty levels! All help is welcome!

We have a one day weekend sprint coming up in Hungary (in Hungarian) and a three day sprint coming up in Vienna the next three weeks and we have plenty things to work on outside of sprints obviously! We definitely have a lot to coordinate about and to coordinate for :)

(Note that the time of this meeting appears to be changed from the prior events, but its still in the same time, our offsets from UTC changed, so the UTC provided base time is different).

We are going strong and are very close with some tasks! We keep working at the top content entity issues and finishing up configuration schema coverage as well as the Drupal 8 coding approach cleanups of the Configuration Translation module. We are also fixing frontend issues in the installer, the negotiation page, the language defaults configuration, etc.

There are sprints at BADCamp as this meeting is on, a one day weekend sprint coming up in Hungary (in Hungarian) and a three day sprint coming up in Vienna in the coming month. There is even a non-profit Drupal 8 multilingual site building and coder training at the same event in Vienna!

We definitely have a lot to coordinate about and to coordinate for :)

We are just out of a fantastic Drupal 8 multilingual initiative sprint (or marathon as Dries called it). We sprinted the weekend before the con and we exceeded all expectations on Monday (running out of chairs, then floorspace then food for sprinters, huh!). Seven people out of 12 in the top two trivia teams were from the multilingual project! We contributed lots of the mentors on Friday (thanks to a large extent the inspiration of YesCT - for the benefit of Drupal :), but then we returned back to solving core problems on the weekend in full force. There was a strong set of people still sprinting in the weekend place on Sunday, see:

I'm really proud of what our team pulled off! Would you believe we are still not done? Well, yeah. With so many things to work on and so many moving parts, we still have lots to do. We made considerable progress. We removed the old node-copy translation module, we made several big ticket improvements to the configuration translation user interface (eg. index of all translatable things for people with limited permissions) and made strides in entity API improvements.

However, we still have stuff to do to get the entity property translation features we need (and get committed) as well as make the configuration translation solution land in core. Although we skipped the Wednesday of the conference for our meeting, we are back at our regular timeslot on October the 9th!
