  • Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit!
    Welcome to Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 Bit! What is Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7? Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is a full replacement for Microsoft©s Windows and Macintosh©s Mac OS for any Intel based PC. Of course we recommend you check the system requirements first to make sure your computer meets our standards. The 64 bit version of Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 works faster than the 32 bit version on a 64 bit PC however the 32 bit version has support for Frets On Fire and a few other 32 bit applications that won©t run on 64 bit. We have worked hard to make sure that you can justify using 64 bit without sacrificing too much compatibility. I would say that Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 64 bit is compatible with 99.9% of all the GNU/Linux applications out there that will work with Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 32 bit. Ultumix GNU/Linux 0.0.1.7 is based on Ubuntu 8.04 but includes KDE 3.5 as the default interface and has the Mac4Lin Gnome interface for Mac users. What is Different Than Windows and Mac? You see with Microsoft©s Windows OS you have to defragment your computer, use an anti-virus, and run chkdsk or a check disk manually or automatically once every 3 months in order to maintain a normal Microsoft Windows environment. With Macintosh©s Mac OS you don©t have to worry about fragmentation but you do have to worry about some viruses and you still should do a check disk on your system every once in a while or whatever is equivalent to that in Microsoft©s Windows OS.

  • Bilan D'activités Open Knowledge Foundation France
    Bilan d’activités Open Knowledge Foundation France Décembre 2012 - Août 2013 Vision stratégique Depuis sa création en décembre 2012, le groupe français de l’Open Knowledge Foundation a connu une croissance rapide que le réseau international a eu l’occasion de saluer. Dans l’effervescence du démarrage, l’association a exploré de nombreuses pistes et a participé à de nombreux projets sans avoir en tête une véritable cohérence dans son action. Toutefois, nous avons poursuivi deux objectifs principaux pendant les premiers mois : la constitution d’une communauté de membres actifs conformément à nos statuts et un effort pour la notoriété de l’association ainsi que son réseau international. Les administrateurs de l’association pensent que ces efforts ont porté leurs fruits au détriment de la cohérence de l’ensemble et parfois d’une gouvernance plus ouverte. Dans cet esprit, nous avons souhaité pendant l’été penser les projets prioritaires et la stratégie de développement de l’association avec les membres actifs qui souhaitaient participer. Nous avons ainsi décidé de nous concentrer prioritairement sur le développement de trois projets principaux : ● Le groupe de travail sur le domaine public avec le développement de calculateurs permettant d’identifier la présence d’une oeuvre dans le domaine public et un outil­méthodologie pour la réutilisation ouverte des cartes postales du domaine public (OpenPostcards) pouvant déboucher sur une série d’événements grand public ● Le développement d’un portail permettant de rendre public et d’agréger les demandes d’information publique à la manière par exemple du projet “What do they know” au Royaume Uni ● La formation du grand public à la réutilisation des données ouvertes avec la traduction en français des contenus de la School of Data (schoolofdata.org) et le développement de Tada (dans la suite du projet imaginé tada.gouv.fr, voir checkthis.com/tadagouvfr), une méthode et de contenus pour initier les enfants à la réutilisation des données ouvertes.

  • Translate's Localization Guide
    Translate’s Localization Guide Release 0.9.0 Translate Jun 26, 2020 Contents 1 Localisation Guide 1 2 Glossary 191 3 Language Information 195 i ii CHAPTER 1 Localisation Guide The general aim of this document is not to replace other well written works but to draw them together. So for instance the section on projects contains information that should help you get started and point you to the documents that are often hard to find. The section of translation should provide a general enough overview of common mistakes and pitfalls. We have found the localisation community very fragmented and hope that through this document we can bring people together and unify information that is out there but in many many different places. The one section that we feel is unique is the guide to developers – they make assumptions about localisation without fully understanding the implications, we complain but honestly there is not one place that can help give a developer and overview of what is needed from them, we hope that the developer section goes a long way to solving that issue. 1.1 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide one reference for localisers. You will find lots of information on localising and packaging on the web but not a single resource that can guide you. Most of the information is also domain specific ie it addresses KDE, Mozilla, etc. We hope that this is more general. This document also goes beyond the technical aspects of localisation which seems to be the domain of other lo- calisation documents.
