Thread: planet in more languages
Hello, planet.postgresql.org is English only. When you google - you will also find some German blogs about PostgreSQL. I bet it is the same with French. Blogging in other languages then English is important in my eyes because there is tons of English words about PostgreSQL but very less in other languages. My idea is to extend planet. Adding something like de.planet.postgresql.org for German blogs or fr.planet.postgresql.org for French blogs. Additionally, the statistics on planet only show English blogs. Ppl who do much blogging in other languages just are falling through the statistics.

I've opposed the idea of mixing languages in the main feed from planet, but I'm definitely not against having separate language feeds. I'd probably advocate planet.postgresql.org/fr/ instead of a separate hostname (because then it can be made entirely dynamic in the app rather than rely on dns changes, for one). And it could be possible to set up something like http://planet.postgresql.org/en-fr-de/ that would show an aggregation of all those languages for those that want it. I know at least some languages have already set up "their own planets" already, iirc at least spanish. So we should probably hear what they have to say on it :-) -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/

Although I do think getting all the different planets together in a great solar system is a good idea.

I really don't mind how the URL looks. That is up to you. The response shows me that we could need it for French, Spanish, Italian and German. My feeling says that also Japanese could have interests. Anyway - fr, es, it and de - these are also languages where I don't see a problem with policy violating checks. There are enough contributors speaking the language. I think you know what I mean. I think something like http://planet.postgresql.org/en-fr-de-it-es/ is not necessary. I am not a fan from statistics at all but when there are statistics then I think it is necessary that they are counted for all languages and not English only. I think en-fr-de-it-es - showing all contents on one page will end up in chaos. Latest when we would add Russian or Japanese I would bet that you maximum will find a handful ppl understanding all languages. It might be a good idea just showing the topics ordered by timestamp linked to the special language planet. But not the whole blog content.

Possibly. > Anyway - fr, es, it and de - these are also languages where I don't see > a problem with policy violating checks. There are enough contributors > speaking the language. I think you know what I mean. Well, before a new language is added, we'd need to have somebody who can do policy checks. As long as we have such a requirement, we could add any language. > I think something like http://planet.postgresql.org/en-fr-de-it-es/ is not > necessary. > > I am not a fan from statistics at all but when there are statistics then > I think it is necessary that they are counted for all languages and not > English only. > > I think en-fr-de-it-es - showing all contents on one page will end up in > chaos. > > Latest when we would add Russian or Japanese I would bet that you maximum > will find > a handful ppl understanding all languages. > > It might be a good idea just showing the topics ordered by timestamp linked > to the > special language planet. But not the whole blog content. The idea is you can pick any combination you want - not necessarily all of them. E.g someone wants english+german, someone else english+french, and somebody who likes the chaos you mention wants english, german, french and spanish all at once.. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
