Today I would like to announce my candidacy as I18n PTL in Queens cycle.
|
|
|
|
I've been in the OpenStack Community since 2015, active as a translator in the
|
|
German team. I participated in my first OpenStack Summit in Tokyo and met the
|
|
I18n team for the first time at the Design Summit. It was an exciting moment to
|
|
meet people from all over the world working on the same thing.
|
|
It is not just translations, but working with different cultures, views and ...
|
|
time zones. These are the magical dimensions and challenges.
|
|
After Tokyo we had virtual midcycle sprint to develop the translation check
|
|
site, one of the tools to help translators in their work.
|
|
I met more people during Barcelona Summit and sank deeper and deeper into the
|
|
work of OpenStack and I18n. In Boston we had our own session to show the work of
|
|
the I18n team. We prepared a workshop also which was not so successful, but the
|
|
preparation was great and we can repeat it at any time.
|
|
|
|
At this point I would like to thank Ianychoi for his excellent work in the past
|
|
as PTL. He is tireless, full of energy, and brought I18n far forward. He was for
|
|
me in the last weeks a kind of mentor to learn all the things related to I18n
|
|
and PTL. Nevertheless, I still need support from the entire team to
|
|
successfully manage this task.
|
|
|
|
What goals have I set for myself for Queens:
|
|
1. Completion of the translation check site. I have been involved in this
|
|
project since 2015 and now it has to be finished :-)
|
|
2. Automate all the things. We have some manual work in I18n and our tools that
|
|
are to automate to make the work easier.
|
|
3. Aquire more people to the team. We have great teams that do a lot. But we
|
|
also get more work through translate new OpenStack projects or the User Survey.
|
|
|
|
I hope I have given a good overview. Contact me directly if you have any
|
|
questions or requests. On good cooperation in a new cycle OpenStack!
