Thread: Moving FAQs to PgFoundry
Hi Bruce, As you know, Peter moved the translation stuff to PgFoundry. As a translator, I'm happy to commit to there since I can do it whenever I want -- better than sending to the list each time I update. What about doing the same for FAQ translations? We may have a chance to assign several translators to each FAQ and we may easily keep them up2date. The website can be configured to pull them from CVS. I can assist you during this moving process, if you want.

If we're moving it to a different cvs, perhaps we should consider moving them directly into the website cvs? //Magnus

This is not directly related with the website development I think. They are also in main source code. So a seperate CVS would be cool IMHO, like translations as I wrote before.

If we'd move them to a different cvs (be that web or separate project), I'd expect them to go away from main cvs? Is there any actual point in keeping them in more than one place? //Magnus

Here we need to mail to Bruce to update the FAQs, etc. Now we will be able to commit to another CVS. -- The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc. 1.503.667.4564 PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support Managed Services, Shared and Dedicated Hosting Co-Authors: PL/php, plPerlNG - http://www.commandprompt.com/

I think right now Peter pulls the *.po files manually from there to the source CVS, right? -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 359-1001 + If your life is a hard drive, | 13 Roberts Road + Christ can be your backup. | Newtown Square, Pennsylvania 19073

Stupid question here, but Devrim's idea is that ppl can be easily added to CVS with write permissions to update/modify the various translations, without having to submit patches ... Do you *really* want a bunch of ppl with write access to the main web site CVS? :) ---- Marc G.

Actually, if I know where to pull from, adding that sort of thing to the build scripts isn't that hard ... in fact, I've suggested this in so far as pulling in stuff like JDBC into the main tar ball as well, where we could pull in a specific 'tag branch' when building ... just means that the JDBC folks, as an example, would have to create a tag that we could use for that specific purpose ... ---- Marc G.
