• src:developers-reference, call for patches, bug fixes & translations

    From Holger Levsen@21:1/5 to All on Mon Mar 6 20:50:01 2023
    hi,

    so I've uploaded src:developers-reference 12.17 today, marking the 17th
    upload during the bookworm release cycle - and I'm not done with src:developers-reference and bookworm yet, though further updates will
    only change the documentation itself and it's translations.

    During the bullseye development cycle there were 22 uploads, during
    the buster development cycle 7 uploads and for stretch there were 4.
    I'm not going back further, since I hope you'll get my point already: src:developers-reference is in active maintenance again! \o/

    & many thanks to everyone who contributed to these uploads!

    Still, https://bugs.debian.org/src:developers-reference lists 40 open bugs,
    of which approximitly at least 23 just need 30-60min attention, probably less. So if you're bored during the freeze, please help a bit. ;)

    And please, feel free to either send a patch to any of these bugs, open
    a MR on salsa or just commit and push to salsa directly if you're confident
    the change is sensible. (The package is in the Debian group on salsa,
    and there's a slightly more verbose README.contributing.)

    And then, the five existing translations could use some updates:

    Stats for de: 1276 translated messages, 45 fuzzy translations, 53 untranslated messages.
    Stats for fr: 1286 translated messages, 39 fuzzy translations, 49 untranslated messages.
    Stats for it: 869 translated messages, 46 fuzzy translations, 459 untranslated messages.
    Stats for ja: 891 translated messages, 26 fuzzy translations, 457 untranslated messages.
    Stats for ru: 870 translated messages, 44 fuzzy translations, 460 untranslated messages.

    (I don't plan to add any new translations during bookworm development, except maybe if a complete new translation pops up.)

    I'd appreciate forwarding this mail to the appropriate translation mailing lists *and* cc:ing me on those mails, so in future I can notify them myself.

    Last and least, there's a single page HTML version available again, eg on https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/developers-reference.html
    which could be linked from https://www.debian.org/doc/devel-manuals#devref again. (I'll reply to this mail turning this paragraph into a bug report against www.debian.org :)

    Feedback very much welcome.

    Thank you for your leadership, Holger.

    I hope you won't mind me noting here that we'd also like to see Policy translated. We've got all the infra, but not too much interest in
    working on it so far.
