''@@ WIP''

The CouchDB translation team exists of committers and non-committers. This document describes how to invite a non-committer. Attracting new translators can be made through various ways. Basically, the translators should show their interest of joining the team through the l10n@couchdb.apache.org mailing-list. Unless there is a very good reason, nothing speaks against inviting her. Here are the steps needed to let a new translator join the team. Lets say Penny wants to join the team and translate to Spanish.

=== Penny shows her interest to join the translation team via l10n@couchdb.apache.org ===

 * send her the email [[https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-admin.git;a=blob_plain;f=email/invite_translator.txt;hb=afa8c189d8fa98afad4d2433feb2e6c2da8c45a2|invite_translator.txt]]
 * send the same email cc: private@couchdb.apache.org

wait for her response and check if the three questions are answered.

=== Penny replied to the invitation ===

Assuming Penny answered the three questions (especially stating the Apache 2 license with yes)

 * create an account with her username at https://translate.apache.org/admin/users.html (you need to have the rights for that)
 * set the following permissions under https://translate.apache.org/es/CouchDB/admin_permissions.html
   * Can download archives of translation projects
   * Can review translations
   * Can make a suggestion for a translation
   * Can submit a translation
   * Can view a translation project
 * send her the email [[https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-admin.git;a=blob_plain;f=email/confirm_translator.txt;hb=afa8c189d8fa98afad4d2433feb2e6c2da8c45a2|confirm_translator.txt]]
 * send the same email cc: private@couchdb.apache.org

=== Announce Penny on the l10n@couchdb.apache.org mailing-list ===

Now everything is set up and you should announce Penny as a new translator to the team.

 * send the email [[https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=couchdb-admin.git;a=blob_plain;f=email/announce_translator.txt;hb=afa8c189d8fa98afad4d2433feb2e6c2da8c45a2|announce_translator.txt]] to the l10n@couchdb.apache.org mailing-list
