In future we might be more lean, given it’s expected opreator would be able to choose how many langaues their platform use by default
10-20min
OEP-58
Langauge depreacation
Eden: TX doesn’t support lang archive, we would only have to donwload them and save them somwhere.
The mapping of langauge/locale to countires, do we have a deifne list
i.e as I user from latin america es49 by default
i.e as I user form Austria, do I get DE
Eden: is that coverd in OEP-58
Omar: We don’t want to hard code the lanague locale in the code, as I understand this one of the issue, we are porposing is there well a settings, i.e OPEN_EDX_LOCALE=['ar','en'].
Ghassan: This cover the case of choosing which langagues, but what about if user is requesting a language that is not enabled by default, which lanaguege the sustem would choose
Brain: This would be outscope of OEP-58
Proivde a path of how to include a new lanague in the code
Brain: The process of adding an new lanague would be much simpler with OEP58
Omar: We would just add one setting somehwer and that’s it, i.e. no need to change makefiles of all repos
Omar: Where is the list of lnaggues:
Eden: You can use all the langauges in wiki/trello, beside thailand/Estonian The list live here @Omar Al-IthawiTranslation Working Group Right @Eden Huthmacher ?
Locale vs langauge
Ghassan: Are we going to keep using them as they are, i.e. sometimes the code is refering to langauge sometimes langague_region
Brian: we would see how TX deal with that, from the code side, it’s trivial to deal with it
Rewving board
We are moving from Trello to gihub, and also form Trello to wiki for minutes and agena
Ghassan: Note that the translation will be what translator has translated to the cut branch, which is mid-April, we would need to do extra step if translation was during last month per say
