SOLAS Match

What is this?

The Rosetta Foundation SOLAS Match is a web application. It is designed to be accessed by two groups: NGOs seeking to have content translated, and volunteer translators who may complete such tasks. Accessed through the browser, the application displays a list of translation tasks previously uploaded to the system. A task may have one resource file attached to it which can be downloaded, translated, and re-uploaded. Development began in February 2011.

Release Notes

Version 16.3

  • A new item has been added to the Admin page "List purchase orders." ( https://twbplatform.org/po_report/ ) shows all purchase orders. Each "PO #" has a link to a version of the SoW Report which contains all tasks of any status for that PO.
  • A bug which allowed duplicate purchase order imports has been fixed.
  • The Sow Report comes in two versions "SoW Report - Completed Paid" ( https://twbplatform.org/sow_report/ ) and "SoW Report - Ongoing Paid Tasks" ( https://twbplatform.org/sow_report/?claimed=1 ). The latter shows claimed/in progress but not completed tasks.
  • The "SoW Linguist Report" ( https://twbplatform.org/sow_linguist_report/ ) shows invoices for a linguist.
  • When invoices are generated, emails will be sent to the linguists with larger amounts.
  • In the Task Page, we show the Completion Date under the Status if the task is Complete.
  • Asana tasks for (non self service) projects are posted to a Partner's Asana board (if this has been configured in the partner's organisation).
  • Each new project created in Phrase will have these 4 fields which are links to help project officers navigate easily: TWB Platform Project, TWB Community, Monitoring Dashboard and Asana board.
  • A new button under "Track Project" called "Change Project Owner" will bring you to a page which will allow you to change the project owner. This button will only appear for non self service Phrase projects. When you select a Project Officer to give the ownership of the project to, the following will happen:
    • The Project owner in TWB Platform will be changed.
    • The Project owner in Phrase will be changed.
    • The new owner will be made the assignee of all uncompleted Asana Tasks and their subtasks for this project.
    • The new owner will track the task in TWB Platform (get email notifications).
  • The track button in project view will set the person clicking it (if a TWB PO, CO or Admin) to follow all Asana tasks for the project and their subtasks. (reversed if un tracked.)
  • In Project View it is now possible to distribute words equally to a number of tasks.

Version 16.2

  • Tasks can now be set to require linguists to have matching Native Language and/or Variant or neither. This setting is only set automatically on task creation for a subset of target languages. It is changed automatically for self service tasks to neither after 2 days (in stages). Other tasks are left for the PO to change.
  • As part of this when a PO is setting these values in Project View, they will see the number of linguists who could claim the task for each setting value and additionally the smaller number of linguists for each setting value that have claimed a task previously.
  • When canceling a task, it is now possible to decided to cancel only the one task or all tasks for the language pair for the file.
  • Project description now has rich text editing support.

Version 16.1

  • Ability to create invoices for completed paid tasks on behalf of linguists (which they can download) and store these in Google Drive.
  • A new FINANCE role has been added.

Version 16.0

  • New Responsive UI added to Linguist facing parts of the system.
  • Expanded "task_type_details" table to include: "unit_rate_pricing_default" (Default Pricing Unit Rate).
  • Expanded "TaskPaids" table to include: "unit_rate_pricing", this can be updated in the Task View, but it is initially set to "unit_rate_pricing_default".
  • Upgraded "Task" table for "word_count_partner_weighted" field. This is initially set to the standard word count but it can be overridden in Task Alter. It will eventually come from Phrase. Existing reports have been upgraded to have pricing based on "unit_rate_pricing" and "word_count_partner_weighted".
  • A new Partner specific report for pricing has been added.
  • A new table "user_paid_eligible_pairs" has been added to indicate who is eligible for paid tasks for a specific language pair. It is displayed in the Search Translators page.
  • Security fix (low priority): phpseclib a large prime can cause a denial of service
  • Security fix (low priority): phpseclib does not properly limit the ASN1 OID length
  • Security fix (medium priority): Follow Redirects improperly handles URLs in the url.parse() function
  • Security fix (medium priority): follow-redirects' Proxy-Authorization header kept across hosts

  • A new system to invite admin/organization users has been introduced (emails are sent which guides them through a registration path which end up giving them the desired roles)...

    • However there will be a limit of 4 emails a day to avoid possible spamming.
    • If a user requests a password reset before they have acted on the verification email from registration (and users seem to do this), completing password reset will act as a substitute (verifying the user's email).

Clicking on this will bring up the link which can be sent to a user having trouble. Or could be used to reset a password on a user's behalf.
