[Openstack-devel] Bug#737819: nova: Newly introduced templates should get a review by debian-l10n-english

Source: nova
Severity: normal

Last release of Nova includes:

  * Configures Neutron credentials through Debconf.

....but the wording of the new templates doesn't fit the style of
other templates.

The "funny" part is that these templates do have the following warning:

# These templates have been reviewed by the debian-l10n-english
# team
#
# If modifications/additions/rewording are needed, please ask
# debian-l10n-english at lists.debian.org for advice.
#
# Even minor modifications require translation updates and such
# changes should be coordinated with translators and reviewers.

Anyway, here are the faulty templates....and my proposed rewording
just after them.


Template: nova/my-ip
Type: string
_Description: Value for my_ip:
 Enter the IP address that will be set in the my_ip directive of nova.conf.

Reworded as:

(please note that I think something should be said about what the hell
is the "my_ip directive" and users should be given a clue of what they
should put there but I have no bloody idea myself)
