Tamarea: For several months, Gaueko has been helping me in my position of Responsible of Communication (internal and external), because it requires too much time for one people. It's time today to make his role official by naming him officially assistant communications manager. Gratz !

2.2 Translations
As you have seen in the last points of the previous list,  we made some improvements relative to the in game texts, and to help the translators in their task.
For the moment the proof-readers are working to improve the interface text. It will take about a month. There are many work on it and the changes need to be regularly tested, but it will improve a lot the quality of the interface text.
Next step will be to check the dialogs text (grammar and spelling) and to update them with the current Lore infos. For example, change the information that says Dexton is the actual Emperor.
We are looking in emergency for helpers (at least two, better three) to check the russian interface text! The only current one is unavailable for the moment so we have nobody for the russian proof-reading.
If you are interested, please, send a mail to Tamarea (tamarea@ryzom.com) or to Gaueko (gaueko@ryzom.com).

2.3 Communication
Work is ongoing to complete all the requested informations, texts, FAQ, manuals, screens, videos... It will be finished in march.

Dev Group
Someone converted some RyzomCore assets to blender: https://plus.google.com/102259963096294243979/posts/ZpoGJqhHeKV
This could be of help for artists who want to use it as a base for new things.

Lore Group
Q:  Not very long ago, we've updated the official NPC names for each country. It should be pursued with the names of the PC with an official status or function. But what would be the best way to gather these names, not only once for all, since this list needs to be updated constinuously? Through the forum? Through OOC reminders during events in game?
A: The wiki is managed by the players. So, if there is any list that should be updated, they have to take care of it if they want it updated. BUT, is true, that to help on that task, some official updated list could be somewhere. Since Atys is constantly changing, the list must be updated continuously. The only list that will never change (or never should), is the one of the old or former NPC that ever existed. Dead characters, former leaders etc etc. Right now, with the Steam release tasks, we are busy in every Team. But, I could share this suggestion (creation of an official list with names NPC, or PC one) with the Lore Team and see what we can do.

Q: Are there other means to get official funtions / titles?
A: Those titles are available if you follow the steps each charge needs to get them. Sometimes you just need to propose yourself in the assemblies to get it; sometimes elections are needed.
Lyne: I think they already have the titles, Gaueko. What they want to know if these official functions will be in the official list.
Gaueko: I see. Then, as I said, it would depend in the status of it. If the charge is Royal Illustrator for example, it should appear as the Royal Illustrator on a list that shows the actual charges inside the nation, NPC and PC. If the charge is no more held by the PC, then it should appear on a list of former royal illustrators. (Just and idea, since I have seen similar list before). When a PC has been so long out, and because of that the tile is lost, then it should be removed to another list for sure. If not, even if it could be annoying, unless they officially remove the title to the PC, it would keep the title.
Zendy: What is difficult also, is that you need to remove (or move) the names of the PC who've been away for long.
Gaueko: When a PC has been so long out, and because of that the tile is lost, then it should be removed to another list for sure. If not, even if it could be annoying, unless they officially remove the title to the PC, it would keep the title.
Zendy: Yes, but to summarise, what you're telling me is to wait for the implementation of an official list?
Gaueko: No. As I said, the list on the wiki is usually managed by the players. On some of the wikis with more information than in others. BUT, I can suggest to the Lore Team to work on an official list (with updates in real time) to help with the list that could be done for the wiki.
Zendy: Ok so I'll try to organised an update of wikilore by the players.
Gaueko: Good luck Zendy. I will try my best so we create an official list to help you, or any future list that could be created. Of course, the help of the Lore Team is open right now for this task too. If you want to ask about any NPC, or have any doubt about it, you can send a mail to tamarea@ryzom.com or to gaueko@ryzom.com.

Osquallo: Other than that, I want to add that I'm working on the name generator to try to "finish" it and make it more in accordance with the Lore. As a preview : https://lut.im/6XQ01spjkl/PEriq5xdy7qY8UZH.png
