Hi,
After the meeting of i18n, where people asked me to come to discuss tx,
I discovered
that it was not working for people outside of me, due to various acl
issues.
So now this is fixed ( rev 1139 ), there is the question of who should
access transifex.
Jehane on #mageia-i18N proposed to have the access for each tranlator (
sound good ),
and I proposed to restrict staff/super user privileges to team leader.
( I do not know yet
what it mean for transifex ).
First question :
Should we have 1 big group for that, and let people manage the various
subteams outside
of ldap, or have 1 group per language ?
1 big group is easier, and we can delegate the management to 1/2 person
( ie i18n team leader ).
Several group is IMHO more scalable, but this requires more work on our
side. And this will not
map to permission on tx and the blog, among others.
Second question :
For delegation, I know that some stuff are planned in catdap, but for
the moment do people think
this is ok to place team leader as owner of the group in ldap, and ask
them to use a ldap editor ( for those
that know it, of course ). The connexion should be secured, and the
access should be simple enough, but
we should better check twice
