    <title>Repository Work Lines</title>

    <para>

        The content production inside &TCAR; has been divided into

        individual work lines that relate one another based on the

        idea of doing one thing well. In this model, the content

        produced individually by each work line is combined one

        another later to achieve higher purposes (e.g., corporate

        identity for &TC;;). The repository work lines, as conceived

        here, provide a reliable environment for people to work

        synchronized and decentralized.

    </para>

    <para>

        The action of combining work lines inside &TCAR; is also known

        as the <quote>Production Cycle</quote> of CentOS corporate

        visual identity. The rest of this section describes the work

        lines available in the repository and how they integrate one

        another.

    <title>Artworks</title>

    <para>

        <emphasis>Artworks</emphasis> is the first component we work

        out in order to produce new corporate visual identities.

        Through this work line, graphic designers create

        <quote>models</quote> and <quote>motifs</quote> for all the

        visual manifestation &TC;; is made of.  Once design models and

        artistic motifs are set in place, graphic designers use the

        <xref linkend="scripts-bash-render" /> functionality to

        combine them into final images.

    </para>

    <para>

        The mission of <emphasis>Artworks</emphasis> work line is

        define all the visual manifestations the &TC;; is made of and

        provide design models and artistic motifs for them in order to

        produce the image files required to transmit the visual style

        that identifies &TC;; as unique organization.

    <title>Localization</title>

    <para>

        <emphasis>Localization</emphasis> is the second component that

        must be worked out in the production cycle of CentOS corporate

        visual identity.  Through this work line translators localize

        source files (e.g., SVG, DocBook, Shell scripts) which are

        later used to produce localized images, localized

        documentation and localized automation scripts.  To localize

        source files, translators use the 

        linkend="scripts-bash-locale" /> functionality which takes

        care of retrieving translatable strings from source files and

        provide a consistent localization interface based on GNU

        <application>gettext</application> multi-lingual message

        production tool set and <command>xml2po</command> command.

    </para>

    <para>

        The localization process takes place inside the

        <quote>

        class="directory">Localization/</filename></quote> directory

        in the first level of each repository directory structure.

        This directory mirrors the renderable directory structures

        outside it and stores 

        class="extension">.po</filename> and 

        class="extension">.pot</filename> files mainly.

    <para>

        The mission of <emphasis>Localization</emphasis> work line is

        extend the visual identity (produced in English language) to

        as many native languages as possible, in order for people

        which doesn't understand English language to feel more

        comfortable with &TC;; in their own native languages.

        The documentation work line is the third component that must

        be worked out in the corporate identity production cycle.

        Through this work line documentors settle down the conceptual

        and practical used to edificate &TCAR;.  To write

        documentation, documentors use the <function>help</function>

        functionality described in

        production standards graphic designers, documentors,

        translators and packagers need to make their work consistent

        and reusable.  For this purpose, programmers develop the
