Hi Gary,

The reason why you got notices that your membership is about to expire
is because you were added to the team with an expiry date set.

On the e-mail notices you got you should have received instructions on
how to reactivate your membership.

I got another e-mail a couple of days ago about the current team owner
not being responsive anymore, so your support request seems to confirm
this.

Mahyuddin Susanto sent me that e-mail telling me that he's the new team
coordinator, so I'd recommend you to contact him (his e-mail is on CC).

I would also strongly recommend:

      * Changing the team owner, as the current one has become inactive,
        as per the procedure at:
        https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase/RoleReassignmentPolicy
      * Follow some of the best practices for Ubuntu translation teams:
        https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/openweekMaverick/BestPracticesForTranslationTeams

It seems to me that the Indonesian team members are a bit disconnected
from each other, so the first thing I'd recommend for the new team
coordinator is to set up a common communication channel (e.g. mailing
list, IRC, forum... whatever form preferred), ask all members to join in
and either start a thread to discuss the change of coordinator and the
current team situation or run an IRC meeting with these topics.

We're soon going to have the Ubuntu Global Jam [1]. That would also be a
great opportunity to organize an Indonesian Translation Jam and get
together to translate Ubuntu into Indonesian.

Regards,
David.

I've just noticed that the team indeed has a mailing list, but from the
69 members, ony a handful are subscribed to it:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-l10n-id/+mailing-list-subscribers

So another suggestion would be to make it a requirement for being part
of the team to be subscribed to the mailing list, as right now many of
the translators seem to be doing contributions in a bit of a
disconnected way, not making the most of what they could achieve being
part of a translation community.

Regards,
David.

Gari, as Devid say above if your membership will expired please send an email to administrator. we (from ubuntu-id staff) don't want quantity but quality, we want to know who is active translator who is only-apply-membership-ant-then-go. i got an email about your membership will expired, but you don't want to replying. why?

Please come to us, end an email to <email address hidden> or ubuntu-id list at google, come to irc #ubuntu-id is a good idea.

Mahyuddin, memang saya sangat sejutu bahwa kwalitas terjemahan itu penting. saya sering memperbaiki terjemahan yg keliru, di mana penerjemahnya kurang faham arti kalimat bahasa inggris secara sempurna.

saya juga bukan seorang penggembira, yang suka ikut2an cuma untuk cari gensi. (saya lihat di halaman launchpad bapak sendiri belum ada kegiatan terjemahan sejak bulan Des 2009.)

btw, this is the first message I have received from anyone connected with Ubuntu in Indonesia, after more than two years trying. The mailing list looks to be a promising way of connecting, and i shall join up as soon as my membership is restored.

?! hey, mahyuddin, i'm not attacking anyone! just stating the facts. please settle down! :)

http://www.ubuntu-id.org/ has not functioned for years. the "forum" has been dead for 2 years, and the "blog" is filled with irrelvancy and barely disguised advertising.

http://ubuntu-indonesia.com/ was formed last year because there was no other choice! to say that "we" (whoever that might be) "don't know" about the ubuntu-indonesia.com forum defied belief. It's the largest most active ubuntu forum in Indonesia! :)

anyway, i shall re-join the translators group now.

Sorry, Mahyuddin, I'm not quite with you here. What precisely do I have to explain? I've already "rejoined"? I do not have access to the mailing list until I have been reinstated as a member of that group.

Mahyuddin, especially being someone in a leadership position as you and
who has signed the Ubuntu Code of Conduct, I'd like to ask you to try
not no use expressions such as RTFM and be more respectful with other
community members.

These can be offending to other people and certainly do not encourage
them to contribute.

I'm sure that wasn't your intention, but please try to take that in
mind. You might also find the Leadership Code of Conduct interesting to
read: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/leadership-conduct

Thanks!

Regards,
David.

i wish this "case" was closed, but alas, it is not.

i sent a subscribe message to ubuntu-l10n and have still not been allowed back into this group.

i received a message from Mahyuddin as a response to my subscribe message, asking to know my "Master Plan". i now presume that revealing my "Master Plan" is a precondition for re-entry to the Indonesian translators group.

i really don't have time to make a Master Plan. much less figure out what that means.

:sigh:

Mahyuddin,

Have you had the chance to reply to Gary regarding his question?. It
seems to me that there is just a disconnect. Could you perhaps elaborate
to him what you mean by the "master plan" he's mentioning?

If you guys use IRC, we can also have a quick chat on the
#ubuntu-translators IRC channel on Freenode. I'm always there at CET
working hours.

Thanks!

Regards,
David.

Hello David, i'm stay at #ubuntu-translator now

I have already sending Gary about this [1] (in indonesian language),
maybe he is very busy so he can reply this message at this time.
In ubuntu-l10n-id tradition (old admin tells me about it), we must
send email first to explain their purpose.

@Gary
if you are not busy please send email yo lists, so i can approve you
as soon as posssible. read list archive for example
