So need is to create one database that can be used by major available tools. *•* <http://www.hindu.com/2011/02/03/stories/2011020362150300.htm>In open content field and particularly for Indian Languages there are lack of Style Guide. So we are now moving in that direction as well to help community to create style guide as well. So please come forward and create one style guide for your language. LATEST [image: fuel malayalam] Of late, FUEL project has organised Malayalam and Punjabi language workshop in Kerala and Punjab respectively. Thanks to Punjabi and Malayalam Community for organising workshops. FUEL thanks to Swathantra Malayalam Computing<http://wiki.smc.org.in/>and Satluj Open Source Project <http://satluj.com/>. In this year itself, FUEL released the beta of Computer Translation Style and Convention Guide for Hindi<https://fedorahosted.org/fuel/wiki/fuel-hindi#FUELComputerTranslationstylea…>. In Oct 2010, we have conducted FUEL Meet for Telugu successfully at Nagarjuana University. FUEL: Use Our aim is to ensure the use of FUEL terminologies and for this, we are working hard. Though we feel that already localised language have little difficulty in implementing the list in one go due to lot of rework, so there we are trying to push the change in phase wise. For this, we are contacting localizers and organizations involved. By default for some languages, FUEL is the primary glossary in Pootle and so being used where Pootle works. For example, Libreoffice translation. [image: virtaal] <http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/virtaal/index> Virtaal <http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/virtaal/index> is a graphical translation tool. It is meant to be easy to use and powerful at the same time. The Virtaal is using FUEL terminology for Indian languages. Thanks to the Virtaal Guys for creating such a good translation tool. ***Future Plans:* We are working to have more workshops for few languages in near future. Chhatisgadi and Kannada communities are working on the plan. We are in the process to arrange one meet for reviewing Hindi Style Guide as well.Languages are archive of our culture and it would be better if we can start making our language digitally strong enough. Particularly, open source lack much in terms of terminology management and we would be happy if we can get contribution towards where use of the FUEL can be increased. So please come forward to create something so...! **FUEL @ Press* •* Move to standardise Malayalam terms in computer programs<http://www.hindu.com/2011/02/03/stories/2011020362150300.htm> ** *•* FUEL Punjabi Meet<http://www.linuxforu.com/news/community/4-mar-fuel-punjabi-meet/> *•* FUEL: An initiative in language standardization via collaboration <http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/149038> ***•* Going regional<http://www.punemirror.in/index.aspx?page=article&sectid=2&contentid=2009021…> **FUEL @ Blogs* •* <http://www.hindu.com/2011/02/03/stories/2011020362150300.htm>A look into FUEL <http://sankarshan.randomink.org/blog/2008/07/10/a-look-into-fuel/> *•* Frequently Used Entries for Localization (FUEL)<http://blog.mozilla.com/seth/2008/07/21/frequently-used-entries-for-localiz…> *•* लीजिए पेश है अपनी तरह की पहली 'हिंदी तकनीकी अनुवाद स्टाइल गाइड'<http://raviratlami.blogspot.com/2011/02/blog-post_09.html> *•* कम्प्युटरसं मैथिली जोडबाक प्रयास<http://www.videha.com/2009/02/blog-post_14.html> *•* FUEL Gujarati Workshop collaborated with Red Hat<http://blog.arniontechnologies.com/uncategorized/fuel-workshop-colloborate-…> For more press coverage and blogs please visit News & Views<https://fedorahosted.org/fuel/wiki/NewsViews> [image: fuel-wiki1] © FUEL Project <https://fedorahosted.org/fuel/> Email: fuel-discuss(a)lists.fedorahosted.org<https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/fuel-discuss> irc @ Freenode: #fuel-discuss FUEL @ Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/pages/FuelProject/117002905034647>and Twitter <https://twitter.com/fuelproject> -- Regards, Rajesh Ranjan Coordinator, FUEL https://fedorahosted.org/fuel <http://www.rajeshranjan.in/>
