My project, Crowdsourcing Translation for CHAOSS Diversity & Inclusion Badging.

  • README.md for Crowd sourcing Translation for D&I Workflow

For the Translation process,The integration will be done using Crowdin.

Crowdin is completely free of charge for open-source projects but there are some criteria that must be met.

The Criteria list.

  • Number 8 from the list, it requires to keep the "News" section of your website up to date.
    Just realized the Chaoss community news is last updated August 15, 2019.

  • Number 7 requires to have an active community of collaborators. For My current repo should i include more collaborators or what do you think @SMotaal @Nebrethar

Regards.

How do you define a news section? Our blog section is up-to-date. Is this just a naming convention issue or is there specific content you are looking for?

@thecraftman

I just pushed thecraftman/badging-experimental-crowdin-content@370cacb to your repo:

  • Deleted the README.md
  • Moved files into a tentative folder structure

Now you can do the following:

  1. Create your own fork of the new repo:

  2. Upstream content to the new repo:

    • Checkout a local copy
    • Create a staging branch from master
    • Copy over the @badging folder as is into a staging
    • Push your staging to your fork
    • open a PR against master
  3. Archive the your old repo:

    • Go to your old repo's settings
    • Rename it to badging-experimental-crowdin-content
    • Archive it

      We'll use it later so do not delete it :)

@thecraftman Crowdin isn't gratis for libre software. It is only offered for free for projects that are non-commercial. That means no source of revenue. And projects need to contribute to their closed TM to apply. Translators are subject to profiling and tracking, and their details are sold.

I would implore you to read their terms and conditions.

@comradekingu At this point, we're merely doing this experimentally, and so it really helps that you and others point out those kinds of concerns — thank you 🙏
