Reports indicate that Amazon is currently hard at work getting ready to launch a new hi-def music streaming service aiming at audiophiles. Reports of the new hi-def streaming service come right on the heels of the online giant announcing last week that Amazon Echo owners could listen to streaming music for free.
August looked to make a splash with in the smart doorbell arena with its “View” doorbell earlier this month. However, three weeks after it initially launched, August has stated that it will stop selling the device.
The August View is completely battery powered, and doesn’t require a hardwire connection to your existing doorbell connection

Seattle Contributor Summit
As our contributing community grows in great numbers, with more than 16,000 contributors this year across 150+ GitHub repositories, it’s important to provide face to face connections for our large distributed teams to have opportunities for collaboration and learning. In Contributor Experience, our methodology with planning events is a lot like our documentation; we build from personas – interests, skills, and motivators to name a few. This way we ensure there is valuable content and learning for everyone.
These personas combined with ample feedback from previous events, produce the altogether experience that welcomed over 600 contributors in Copenhagen (May), Shanghai(November), and Seattle(December) in 2018. Seattle’s event drew over 300+ contributors, equal to Shanghai and Copenhagen combined, for the 6th contributor event in Kubernetes history. In true Kubernetes fashion, we expect another record breaking year of attendance. We’ve pre-ordered 900+ contributor patches, a tradition, and we are looking forward to giving them to you!
With that said… Save the Dates:
Barcelona: May 19th (evening) and 20th (all day)
Shanghai: June 24th (all day)
San Diego: November 18th, 19th, and activities in KubeCon/CloudNativeCon week
In an effort of continual improvement, here’s what to expect from us this year:
Large new contributor workshops and contributor socials at all three events expected to break previous attendance records
A multiple track event in San Diego for all contributor types including workshops, birds of a feather, lightning talks and more
Addition of a “201” / “Intermediate” edition of the new contributor workshop in San Diego
Follow along with updates: kubernetes-dev@googlegroups.com is our main communication hub as always; however, we will also blog here, our Thursday Kubernetes Community Meeting, twitter, SIG meetings, event site, discuss.kubernetes.io, and #contributor-summit on Slack.
Opportunities to get involved: We still have 2019 roles available!

Last year we optimized the Kubernetes website for hosting multilingual content. Contributors responded by adding multiple new localizations: as of April 2019, Kubernetes docs are partially available in nine different languages, with six added in 2019 alone. You can see a list of available languages in the language selector at the top of each page.
By partially available, I mean that localizations are ongoing projects. They range from mostly complete (Chinese docs for 1.12) to brand new (1.14 docs in Portuguese). If you’re interested in helping an existing localization, read on!
What is a localization?
Translation is about words and meaning. Localization is about words, meaning, process, and design.
A localization is like a translation, but more thorough. Instead of just translating words, a localization optimizes the framework for writing and publishing words. For example, most site navigation features (button text) on kubernetes.io are strings contained in a single file. Part of creating a new localization involves adding a language-specific version of that file and translating the strings it contains.
Localization matters because it reduces barriers to adoption and support. When we can read Kubernetes docs in our own language, it’s easier to get started using Kubernetes and contributing to its development.
How do localizations happen?
The availability of docs in different languages is a feature—and like all Kubernetes features, contributors develop localized docs in a SIG, share them for review, and add them to the project.
Contributors work in teams to localize content. Because folks can’t approve their own PRs, localization teams have a minimum size of two—for example, the Italian localization has two contributors. Teams can also be quite large: the Chinese team has several dozen contributors.
Each team has its own workflow. Some teams localize all content manually; others use editors with translation plugins and review machine output for accuracy. SIG Docs focuses on standards of output; this leaves teams free to adopt the workflow that works best for them. That said, teams frequently collaborate with each other on best practices, and sharing abounds in the best spirit of the Kubernetes community.
Helping with localizations
If you’re interested in starting a new localization for Kubernetes docs, the Kubernetes contribution guide shows you how.
Existing localizations also need help. If you’d like to contribute to an existing project, join the localization team’s Slack channel and introduce yourself. Folks on that team can help you get started.
There’s a new Hindi localization beginning. Why not add your language, too?
As a chair of SIG Docs, I’d love to see localization spread beyond the docs and into Kubernetes components. Is there a Kubernetes component you’d like to see supported in a different language? Consider making a Kubernetes Enhancement Proposal to support the change.

Seattle Contributor Summit
As our contributing community grows in great numbers, with more than 16,000 contributors this year across 150+ GitHub repositories, it’s important to provide face to face connections for our large distributed teams to have opportunities for collaboration and learning. In Contributor Experience, our methodology with planning events is a lot like our documentation; we build from personas – interests, skills, and motivators to name a few. This way we ensure there is valuable content and learning for everyone.
These personas combined with ample feedback from previous events, produce the altogether experience that welcomed over 600 contributors in Copenhagen (May), Shanghai(November), and Seattle(December) in 2018. Seattle’s event drew over 300+ contributors, equal to Shanghai and Copenhagen combined, for the 6th contributor event in Kubernetes history. In true Kubernetes fashion, we expect another record breaking year of attendance. We’ve pre-ordered 900+ contributor patches, a tradition, and we are looking forward to giving them to you!
