> It's not as "easy" as running an email server and no one wants to do that either.
I find setting up a decent email server is a lot more complicated than running an xmppd.

emusMartin: Maybe thats a good suggestion for an article. If there are so many myths about XMPP
emusI would do it if one would provide the credidentials to mw
emusI would do it if one would provide the credidentials to me
pep.There was the homebrewserverclub tutorial that was good (and got a prosody team stamp :p)
emusI think we should publish continiously to that community
MartinMaybe jcbrand can share his experiences:

alkinohello, I come to discuss with peace of the newletters
alkinoas the news are in a lot of different languages, do you think it is possible to make a short description of them in the news?
Alexhas left
vanitasvitaealkino: a short description of the languages?
vanitasvitaeOr what do you mean?
alkinoa short description of the news / video linked
Martinemus: jcbrand is asking for your jid to send you credentials
alkinoin the main news
jcbrandemus: my JID is jc@opkode.com
Alexhas joined
emusMartin: Thanks!
emusalkino: We actually try to summarize shortly. However, we often dont speak the language ourselves 😐 So you might need to use a translator software or ask someone for help. However, we are happy to have new contributors to helpout with this
alkinoI will stick here, if you got french news, ask me
vanitasvitae👍
emusalkino: Cool! Feel free to review our draft PR on github as well
alkinosend it to me? for the moment I only read the french translation
alkino`Everyone participating, please just don't drop links - rather try to make a short and decent formulated description what is the main outcome of your source`
alkinoahah
emuswe mean plain links without anything. Be we also dont want very long texts I think (do we not?)
vanitasvitaeBy the way in that paragraph, you should swap "just" and "don't"
emusyep

alkino@emus, I know, you have to keep it really short, but sometimes, you don't know what the video / link is about, and you have to use a translator for it, I guess if you're not really in XMPP you won't do that
emusBut with what article/video summary did you not have been happy with?
Licaon_Kteralkino: is this about not being able to read English but don't want to use translator?
emusIs fine Licaon_Kter
pep.Licaon_Kter, I can understand it's a bit frustrating being told "Hey there's this article here, go figure it out yourself" (somewhat)
alkinopep : +1
alkinomy english is bad
alkinoif you have a short description, I can decide to - not read because I don't care, - read the summary of the article because I care a bit - read the whole article with a translator because the topic looks really cool!
Licaon_Kterpep.: right...plenty of those is German around this ecosystem, so I do as expected....find a way to translate
Licaon_Kteralkino: translate the whole letter text then...
Licaon_KterYou can usually feed the link directly
Licaon_KterEg. Not on deepl.com but translate.google or .bing
alkinoyes, but if there is 10 obscure links, of course I will not do
alkinooften I translate the third first that looks interestring to me, and I don't translate following
alkinoit depends on how many time I want to spend on XMPP newsletter
alkinodo you understand my point of view?
Licaon_Kteralkino: are we lost in translation? I just said I do
alkinook, I'm lost on translation, possibly ^^
Licaon_Kter> right...plenty of those is German around this ecosystem, so I do as expected....find a way to translate
alkino: ^^^^
alkinowhat I understand about your point of view is "you could translate all links and read them all"

Licaon_KterYes, else I'd find it odd to scroll 4-5 summaries for each entry.
Also, it takes time to translate and as you can see the montly newsletters has odd releases skipping months :)
Licaon_Kteralkino: are there translations in your language, or your native one is not DE or FR or SP?
alkinomy native one is FR
arnaudjhas joined
Licaon_KterOk, then wait for that team to finish it.
Here, read this in the mean time: https://cnnumerique.fr/Interoperabilite_Concurrence_Etude
;)
emusalkino: Yes, that is actually the point. We have a continiuos assembly for the French version. I would ask people to head and wait for the translations.
Isnt that the best outcome?
alkinoyes
emusI think peetah and supporters are doing a good job with that
emusalkino: But you are invited to make contributions to the current and upcoming releases!
alkinoI will ^^
alkinodiscretely adding description when I feel the need :p
alkinopeer review will do the rest
alkinoI subscribed to the PR, I will miss nothing :p
