Proposal: Fedora G11N Steering Committee
by Pravin Satpute
Hi All,
I am sure, most of the people working with Fedora I18N, L10N from 5-6
year must be aware regarding Fedora L10N Steering Committee. [1] As far
as i know this committee was active around 2009 and very effective.
During Fedora G11N activity day discussions, we again felt there is
need for some kind of official committee to drive Fedora Globalization
activities. Fedora is growing faster with number of different domains
and G11N also need to adapt those changes quickly to remain on the track.
For this purpose and in line with [1], we were thinking of Fedora
Globalization steering committee. I have created initial proposal for
it. [2]
Its open for feedback, please feel free to share other active members,
discuss in your respective language groups. This is just initial
proposal and i am sure, we can improve and make it more effective with
active participation.
Regards,
Pravin Satpute

[Followup] Translation deadline around Beta
by Noriko Mizumoto
Hi All
I have looked through devel team schedule closer, and decided to propose
the move of all software translation related events rather than the add
another translation deadline, to minimize the impact to devel and
Rel-Eng teams. However I only have translator's view and not
developer's. If you think this is impossible with some reason, let me
know. Also it is much appreciated any input.
Thanks

Golden chance to translate Fedora 24 in your language
by Jona Azizaj
Out of the six billion people in the world, only 339 million have English as a first language. The importance of English in global business increases the number of English speakers, but the people learning are taking English on as a second language. A notable number of users prefer products in their own language. In the Fedora Globalization (G11n) group, we are making this happen. The efforts are huge, and kudos to all our contributors.If you are a non-English user in Fedora and want to help improve translations in your native language, this is your time to contribute! A virtual Fedora translation sprint is coming up soon for Fedora 24 GUI applications.
Although it is a virtual event, if there are more contributors at a single location, they can gather together at an available place and work together.If any Ambassadors have this plan, please contact the G11n list with your requirements.
The translation sprint is happening according to the Fedora 24 schedule. There is a good chance to get your own contributions into Fedora 24!
So what are you waiting for? The vFAD is starting from April 1 – 5, 2016. Not sure how to contribute? Have a look at our new article published on the CommBlog.> https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/translate-fedora-24-in-your-langu...
Thanks :)

How many badges should be there for vFAD translations??
by pravin.d.s@gmail.com
Hi,
Unfortunately we miss this topic discussion yesterday. I am just
wondering how many badges should be there for vFAD.
As far as i think, should be following.
1. Contributor - Translation of 20+ string..
2. Team badge - This should be to all members of language teams completed
90% of more translations for selected packages.
3. Organizers - People helping in organizing vFAD.
Please provide your comments. Planning to file ticket today.
Regards,
Pravin
