What else would one need from a place to organize a localization summercamp? In August 2006 eRiders Georgia in cooperation with OpenOffice.org Georgian Native-Lang project selected a group of volunteer community members from open source, linguists and IT-experts and organized OpenOffice.org Georgian Localization Summercamp at Chakvi, a popular Black Sea resort in Georgia. The aim of the project was to localize OpenOffice.org user inteface and user assistance messages to Georgian language, as well as increase community interest and public awareness of OpenOffice.org and other FLOSS products. During 6 days the group of 30 participants and organizers localized the whole user interface and majority of user assistance messages. The QA will be accomplished with cooperation of OpenOffice.org Georgian NL project and Deer Leap Foundation, a school computerization programme by Georgian Ministry of Education and Science. As a result, OpenOffice.org will be distributed to all Georgian schools, where all students will get a chance to get used to FLOSS products from the first beginning of their study. The forthcoming changes in Georgian intellectual property law should reduce piracy rate within Governmental, corporate and private users and will eventually increase the demand on FLOSS products.
