Details

We are reorganizing the Tech Evangelism components. It will proceed in three phases:

1. create new components
2. move existing bugs
3. remove obsolete components

This bug concerns phase 1.

All new components will use aliases for their default owners and qa assignments.
Anyone wishing to be involved in Tech Evangelism will simply need to watch the
appropriate email aliases.

Ok, accounts created; mail disabled. myk can you rename my 'evangelism.bugs'
accounts to the realname listed?
Assignee: ian → myk
timeless: I can't find those accounts, and what's your "real name"?

Isn't Ian supposed to have something to do with this?
Can you create Japanese? I would prefer not to go look in Other?
Gashu and/or I should be able to track bugs for Japan.
Please add an additional component:

Japanese - japanese@evangelism.bugs

    Evangelism bugs for sites in Japanese
Zach mentioned that he would like to have the ability to separate Owner bugmail
from QA bugmail. Can we have an additional alias created for each component with
a suffix of -qa ? 

E.g. Owner: english-us@evangelism.bugs, QA: english-us-qa@evangelism.bugs
Where does this stand?
I'm waiting for hixie to sign off on the new components, after which I'll do
whatever else is necessary.
I'm happy to let the Tech Evang group organise their product however they like.
I was actually waiting for timeless to explain what he had done, since I
couldn't decode his last comment.
Ok, done.  Back to you, timeless.

I see everything was added but English Other, and English US
I folded
China:	This component is for filing bugs found in China. It is expected that the
writing script of this component will be (Simplified) Chinese. Use GB2312
encoding to file your bugs if you are writing in Chinese.
and
Chinese:	Evangelism bugs for sites in Chinese

into:
Chinese  	Evangelism bugs for sites in Chinese. Use (Simplified) Chinese GB2312
encoding when writing comments in Chinese.

Notes:
Turkish isn't among the languages we have...

US General => English US
English: Non US => English Other

I deleted African (bc emptied it)
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Probably should change "Chinese" to "Chinese-Simplified". We only have
volunteers to deal with sites in China, not in Taiwan or Hong Kong.
Otherwise the instruction to use only GB2312 does not make any sense.
Plugins and US Banks are now empty and can be removed.
Authors, Pacific Islands are now empty and can be removed. We are working on the
others.
It would not be a good idea to slight Trad Chinese users in Taiwan and
Hong Kong. Let's create "Chinese-Traditional". Copy the description
for Chinese except that script/lang name is Traditional Chinese and
the encoding to use is: Big5 rather than GB2312. 
Once this is done, I can move all other Asian bugs.  
Changes to chinese-simplified requiered:

Please do this ASAP. 

1. Change the default email address:

chinese@evangelism.bugs --> chinese-simplified@evangelism.bugs

2. Create a new Chinese-Traditional category.

default email address: chinese-traditional@evangelism.bugs

Description: Evangelism bugs for sites in Traditional Chinese. Use Chinese
Traditional Big5 encoding when writing comments in Chinese.
All Asian component bugs have been re-assigned to other categories.
Asian can be removed now.
As of this writing, all Middle Eastern bugs have been moved elsewhere.
Check to make sure that someone has not filed one since I wrote this
message and then remove Middle Eastern. (Thanks) 
please delete the following components:

Europe: Central
Europe: East
Europe: West
email addresses for comment 17 now exist.
I think all that's left is killing the Americas
Right, timeless. I got busy and has not been able to finsih off
the Americas yet but that is coming this week. 
I moved all the americas bugs into Other. You can delete The Americas now and
mark this fixed. Thanks bunchoroos!
Fixed in BeOS (ask me on irc why that's interesting)
