Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Given the history of Vietnam, would it make sense to also post in French? I have no information about the most common second languages are in Vietnam, but English and French seem likely. Basically, I'm asking if Hagar could translate Drew's message.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Same thought crossed my mind - in fact wondered if directing folks to the French forum might even make more sense...I think in the end though English as the catch all language is fairly well established now. Anyway - I asked on the mailing list if there was anyone that could translate the En text into Vi, same question goes out here then.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Someone I work with knows someone who may be able to translate the announcement into Vietnamese. Because the translator has a night shift job, I can get it to her either tonight or tomorrow night. All times UTC -7

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Ok here is the draft of the shutdown notice for posting on the site;
I'm sure that could be tweaked and made better...so comments are welcomed.Effective February 2nd, 2012 new account registrations and posts from existing registered users is suspended.
The user community forums are sustained by the labor of users volunteering their time time to assist others, thereby helping all involved.
Unfortunately at this time the forum is unable to fill these crucial roles.
For those seeking assistance with the Apache OpenOffice (formerly OpenOffice.org) office suite, such assistance is still available at any of the other Nine language forums:
English language forum is found at http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum
French language forum is found at http://user.services.openoffice.org/fr/forum
A full list of available forums is available at http://user.services.openoffice.org
Anyone interested in helping to reinvigorate the Vietnamese language forum please contact the site administrative staff by registering at the English language forum and posting a comment to the Forum Governance board:
http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/ ... .php?f=102
Edit: note that the final line is displayed oddly here, but would set as a full URL from the VI forum.. |

It's good enough as it is. It's back to 118 posts and some of it is pure social talk. Heck, that's for three years, don't waste any time on it.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Here is the French version:
I've just added that in the basics, moderators were also needed. I've added the address of this topic (so that they get the history).Nous sommes au regret de vous informer qu'à partir du 2 février 2012, le forum est fermé. La création de compte ainsi que l'envoi de messages (y compris pour les utilisateurs déjà inscrits) ne sont donc plus possibles.
Les forums de la communauté d'utilisateurs n'existent que par l'engagement bénévole de volontaires, répondant pendant leur temps libre aux questions en ligne afin d'en faire profiter le plus grand nombre. Parmi ces volontaires, des modérateurs sont également nécessaires afin de lutter contre le spam.
Malheureusement, le forum n'assure plus ces fonctions de base.
Si vous avez besoin d'aide sur la suite de productivité Apache OpenOffice (anciennement OpenOffice.org), vous pouvez toujours visiter les neuf autres forums :Si vous pensez pouvoir aider à relancer le forum (aide / modération / administration), n'hésitez pas à vous enregistrer sur le forum anglophone et à nous contacter sur la section Forum Governance et en particulier ce fil de discussion qui explique les raisons de cette décision.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
I like Hagar's longer version very much. i'd almost suggest to translate that back, especially the part about spam should have a place in the message.
Hagar: that's some marvellous French, beautiful! Note to self: I have to read more French.
should of course read "spare time".time time
"Regrettably we had to decide that, effective February 2nd, 2012 ... will be suspended"Effective February 2nd, 2012 new account registrations and posts from existing registered users is suspended.
Perhaps "revive".reinvigorate

OT:Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
@ floris v: one of the nicest reads I have had in any language is two books by Marcel Aymé: Les contes bleus du chat perché and Les contes rouges do chat perché. Two childrens' books, but most enjoyable collections of short stories. I got them from amazon.fr.Note to self: I have to read more French.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Well, the longer wording is fine with me - but I really did not mean for a French translation.
I really feel it is should be Vietnamese or English - I did a little research on that and afterwards feel even more strongly.
The notice should not be in French.

Edit: To put it in the positive - it would be better in English, if not Vietnamese proper. |

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Because of the history of Vietnam it may be fully as understandable in French as in English. I'd put both versions, pending receipt of a Vietnamese translation.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Ah, then again it is listing the French forum also - so it's fine - English and French unless I can get a Vietnamese translation over night - OK

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
I believe you're right - did some reading - English seems to be widely in use and French may still not be very popular after the colonial period.

I did send out the English version for translation. I'll post as soon as I hear whether it will happen. That may be tonight.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
If you can get an opinion with your translator about a French notice...
I'm not sure French is widely spread neither.
But thanks for the compliments anyway!

Thanks Hagar - Used your French translation verbatim and as close as I could get for the English translation.

Added it at the top of the notification. It'd be nice to have a Vietnamese subject line as well though.

Re: Vietnamese forums are a spammers' paradise
Should we announce AOO 3.4 there? I noticed that the Close forums message does get some attention (over 900 views), so an announcement of the new release might not be entirely in vain.
