Hi,
Welcome to the NLC. It's not l10n, though, and for managing the
localization of OOo to Uzbeki (is that the right form?), you need to
coordinate with the l10n leads, Rafaella Branconi and Pavel JanÃk.
Am cc'ing Rafaella.

Greetings,
I am representing Paradox-Neo company, which is vendor of EastLinux
distribution, and we willing to translate OpenOffice.org to Uzbek
language.
Uzbek is currently used by more than 30 Million people all over the
world -
mostly Asia.
Uzbek is official language of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
Uzbek has Cyrillic based alphabet, and has its own locale (language
already
added in some Linux distributions and locale also supported in
Windows).
Our group is currently working on EastLinux distro, KDE, Gnome and
some other
products translation into Uzbek.
Can you speak more about your group? I am merely curious as to its
relation to the government and other official companies. My interest--
our interest--is to engage governments in using, developing,
furthering OpenOffice.org. Having it in the national language
helps ;-). And it also helps us to learn how we can anticipate--for
this will surely come--Microsoft's revenge :-)
Currently, we have finished about 65% OpenOffice translation and
we're willing
to share this data to the community and continue translation
process with
help of volunteers.
That's great. Raffaela will surely help you with the process, and as
Charles indicated, a NLC project can establish things for your team
and users.
Part of the OpenOffice Uzbek language translation was made by
coordinator of
KDE Uzbek localization team Mashrab Kuvatov.
Great! I love it when KDE and we work together and wish we did it
more :-)
i would add another link, http://native-lang.openoffice.org/, that
you should review, as it has really useful information that I am not
sure the NLC wiki page has entirely captured.
I request OOo community to approve Uzbek Language project.
We can create the project for you but you must work with l10n, http://
l10n.openoffice.org/, for localization, and Rafaella and Pavel are
your contacts for that!
Again, welcome!
And, I would only ask that you, and all NLC subscribers, simply
inform the others on this list of interesting events and that you
share the documentation, developer hints, etc. We all benefit.
For documentation (user), see http://documentation.openoffice.org
For Support, see http://support.openoffice.org/
And if you need someone to cut red tape and try to get things done
for you, feel free to contact me always.
But first, lets get your project going! ---and tell us about FOSS in
Uzbekistan!! I think I speak for all when I say we are curious. To
me, Uzbekistan is wonderfully exotic. But then, I live in Canada,
now, and everything is exotic. :-)
Ciao,
Louis
PS one thing we ask is that you also subscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
lang.openoffice.org, for marketing, and that you consider
coordinating with the project-wide marketing project at http://
marketing.openoffice.org.
And, of course, please try to attend the upcoming OOoCon!
Thanks,
Nurali Abdurahmonov.
Ciao
Louis
