Het Fedora Localization Project (L10N)
Het doel van het Fedora Localization Project (FLP) is alles rond Fedora (de Software, Documentatie, Websites en cultuur) dichter bij lokale gemeenschappen (landen, talen en, in het algemeen, culturele groepen) te brengen. Normaal houdt dit vertalingen van PO-bestanden in, maar is zeker niet beperkt tot dat.
is een afkorting van de term "Localization" door middel van een zogenaamd numeronym, een manier van vervangen van de middenletters van een woord (in casu 'ocalizatio') door het aantal letters tussen de eerste en de laatste letter van dat woord (in casu 10): Localization wordt zo L10N.
Taallijst
Zie http://translate.fedoraproject.org/languages voor een overzicht van hoeveel talen beschikbaar zijn en een substiantiële vertaling hebben van onze essentiële software.

Communication
Mailing list
There are some mailing lists that interest members of the FLP.
- The main list is fedora-trans-list (archive ), which holds discussions about translations, team coordination, etc.
- Technical issues are discussed at fedora-i18n-list . If you are interested in more than translations, like eg. our websites, bugzilla, the mailing list, etc, you would want to join this as well.
Commits list
- We've setup the group 'l10n-commits' for those who would like to receive emails for commits in the
/cvs/l10n/repo and various other emails. - To subscribe, go to the Fedora Accounts System and add yourself to l10n-commits. Unfortunately the system needs approval, so someone should jump in to approve you, which should happen quickly.

Schedule
Both of these schedules include translation freeze dates, which are dates that translations are picked up for adding them into the product.
