Translator metrics in Damned Lies

Hi

I've talked with Leonardo Fontenelle and he told me an idea to improve
Damned Lies: some translator metrics. Sometimes is useful to see how
many translations a translator have done or how many time the user is
inactive. Maybe it can be useful when we promote translators to
reviewers.

What do you think about that ?

Isn't that also on http://cia.vc/authorname?

I think there should also be another column, a maintainer of the
package, in UI Translations release view. Maintainer is a translator
that keeps an eye on the package, but it's not necessarily the only
translator. If maintainers alias would be shown in separate column,
one could "check" how many packages one person controls, which
packages are still without maintainer and also see, which "my"
packages were changed lately and need an update ...

I also think that data like multiple plurals, should be edited by
coordinators. A bug report for wring multiple plurals for Slovenian is
opened for a long, long time ...

M!

Errr...no? From a very quick look you could see that according to cia.vc
everybody stopped contributing to GNOME half a year ago, when GNOME
switched to Git.

Are you sure?

My profile in cia.vc is updated [1] and I became a commiter 2 months ago.

Not exactly: http://cia.vc/stats/project/GNOME

In fact, the username detection changed, as Git username is not visible
in logs. See also:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595936

While solving the bug, it is also very important to add a feature to
"combine" usernames. My changes for example are measured using three
different usernames. I think adding cia.vs line to damned-lies as some
users already haveshould also be in the users settings and
coordination domain.

Oh! Thanks for correcting me, I was still looking at the old
http://cia.vc/stats/author/aklapper .

Right, we've the following bug already filed in Bugzilla, it might be of
interest (not only) to you:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=568770

It goes without saying that the current Vertimus is already doing a huge
amount of work for us, however, it's evident that it doesn't fully support
workflow in teams, which have these translation maintainers, as you call
it. In contrast to the teams that reserve & translate packages ad hoc,
there's a need for an extra reservation every time the reservation gets
reset, e.g. after a translation update commit is announced in Vertimus, so
team can continue to maintain a reliable, current enough overview of who
translates what.

Yes, that'd be nice to have too. :-)

Best,

Well, that might be because your email address "username" and you Git
username are the same... ? See:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595936#c1

Anyway, I'm afraid it isn't worthwhile count the cia.vc stats in when
thinking of implementing some sort of translator metrics. Pondering a kind
of (former) Bugzilla user point system we used to have in old
bugzilla.gnome.org, Vertimus might already contain enough data for that. But
then again, I'm just guessing here. It's obviously up to our great
implementers to decide what can be really done and what can we
expect on this subject. :-)

Cheers,
Petr Kovar

Just to acknowledge that i carefully read your various proposals around
this thread. Please do note what seems to be agreed upon in a bug
report, so as not to lose the ideas.
Now it's always the same problem. Time, time, time... :-(

I've created a Bug Report for this. Please note that I'm not asking
this to be implemented in a hurry, I'm sending only an idea to improve
:-).

Well, I understand why I didn't remember of this, I was not following
the l10n-status.gnome.org component of website product of Bugzilla.

This is now fixed.
But in Bugzilla's time frame, 40 days is not a long, long time :-)

Claude

I'd like to add something about stats.

Stats for the user should count number of strings changed, which would
also give credit to reviewers. I think that adding a comma or period
when finalizing the translation is worth as much as translation
itself. Translators usually don't "look" back on finished
translations.

Is there a way to see statistics for specific translator in git?
I found "git blame filename", but do not now how to translate the
output in numbers.
