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

Hi Friends,
In last couple of i18n meeting we were talking about FAD. We had nice
and successful G11N FAD in 2015. In that FAD we had participants from all
G11N groups. But it also increased budget and getting approval and allowing
all interested members were difficult.
To avoid this situation we are planning to have small FAD's from
onwards. i.e. FAD for i18n, FAD for translations etc. It will help to more
events over the year and continue momentum to whole G11N.
I have created page for i18n FAD. [1] Feel free to add your name there,
it is specifically for i18n. Though location is not finalized but it will
be mostly APAC also cant guarantee the travel budget to participants.
But one can always participate remotely for at least some sessions.
I will soon work with someone for Translation FAD proposal. I remember
we had nice discussion with Zoltan, Jona and Jibec during flock 2016 for
FAD.
Thanks,
Pravin
