      • No meeting yet
  • Post-12 release issues

    • Continue language tag discussion based on input from John Cowan
      • Related issues:
      • Open discussion points
        • Language or language+subtag? Subtag could be region or script. E.g., in Chinese the script is of primary significance in written text, not the region. From John Cowan.
          • Maybe language only if there are no significant regional distinctions, otherwise language+region? (Note, for accuracy the subtags are not always 2 letters).
          • Don't need to prescribe, just let people submit what they want to? We could reject a region tag where there are no regional distinctions.
          • What do we want to do for our versions?
            • English - use language only, may change in future
            • French - use language only, may change in future
        • How do we review PRs in language we have no expertise in?
          • Trust factor
          • In-house expertise
          • Test in Google translate (to English), if they look OK accept them. If not, reject the whole batch.
          • Add disclaimer for those we haven't been able to review, and also that they may not be up-to-date as gist evolves.
          • SA in-house expertise:
            • French: Doug, Jess
            • German: Rebecca
            • Arabic: Dalia
            • Simplified and Traditional Chinese: Katie (some)
            • Japanese: Katie (some)
            • Russian: Irina
            • Italian: Irina
        • No default untagged version - our default should be en-US. From John Cowan.
          • Then this is a major change.
          • Decision: keep untagged versions as defaults in ontology files. Can change later in a major release.
        • File names and directory structure.
          • Only release in Turtle.
          • Most likely only gistCore, not supplementary ontologies, will be translated.
          • There might be a translation of the readme if someone wants to do it.
          • So, we'll only have one ontology file per language. Naming conventions:
            • gistCore.en.ttl
            • README.en.md
          • So use one directory.
        • References:
    • Project board
