Who are we and what we do?
LISA described globalisation as "the global product development cycle, where internationalisation includes the planning and preparation stages for a product and localisation the actual adaptation of the product for a specific market.
But from Fedora point of view G11n is collaboration effort from different operating groups in Fedora. The main focus is to coordinate and support community in #Internationalization (i18n), #Localization (l10n), Zanata and FLTG area to provide effective workflow on Globalisation for Fedora project.
The group members consists of representatives from #Internationalization-i18n, #Localization-l10n, #Zanata and #Fltg. We welcome anyone who are interested as well.
