I figured I'd forward this request.

Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/105198 Post a follow up: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/105198

Project: Drupal.org maintenance Version: <none> Component: cvs Category: tasks Priority: normal Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: thanhhai Updated by: thanhhai Status: active

I mentioned the project named *Vietnamese translation* listed here http://drupal.org/project/vi This project was created a month ago without any release. The correct locale code for Vietnamese is /vi/ so I assumed the project named *Vietnamese* is not about Vietnamse translation and I did not take a look at it. Because of project duplication, would you please merge 2 projects into one and create valid vi directory in CVS? Thanks.

Kind regards, Thanh Hai, Ha.

Hello,

I have almost finished the translation of Drupal to Vietnamese and I wish to contribute parts of my work to the community. I've tried to create a new project but there is an existing project named Vietnamese translation and I don't know how to submit my .po files (could not find the vi folder under contributions/translation). The project maintainer of this project seems to be inactive and I could not find any translation information from the project page. For better contribution, I need you transfer the maintainer role of this orphaned project to me. My CVS account is thanhhai.

Thank you for you time.

Best regards, Thanh Hai, Ha.

there seems to be confusion here...

http://drupal.org/project/vietnamese exists (http://drupal.org/node/103917) it was just created a few weeks ago, so i find it hard to believe it's already abandoned/orphaned.

however, it's got the wrong shortname and is pointing to the wrong directory in CVS. instead of "vietnamese", it should just be "vt" (assuming that's the right country code).

seems like you and thehong [1] need to talk and figure out what's going on. either one of you could own the project node, the other could be granted CVS access, and then both of you would be able to update the project node, make changes, etc. since it's a translation, anyone with a CVS account can already commit to the (still non-existant) contributions/translations/vt directory...

anyway, the two of you should sort it out. once you have a plan, just follow-up here and i'd be happy to help with whatever node ownership transfer (if any) needs to happen.

cheers, -derek
