I have started to create a new blog post [1] about our recent

Join the OpenOffice localization

Apache OpenOffice is [available in 38 languages | Link to download] and with the upcoming release (planned for next month) we will see more than 40.

But it is not only about to localize OpenOffice software into different languages. It is also about the website. Of course the main website [www.openoffice.org/ | Link] is the most known with the most hits on Google. However, this is not all. There are many more that offer translated information in your favorite language and localized to your local area to get specialized information that are not available in English. Examples: [Italian | Link], [Spanish | Link], [German | Link] and [Lithuanian | Link].

List of all languages for that OpenOffice is released but the website needs an update or even inital work:

Basque, Bulgarian, Chinese [simplified], Chinese [traditional], Danish, Finnish, Greek, Czech, Scottish [Gaelic], Galician, Hindi, Hungarian, Japanese, Khmer, Korean, Norwegian [Bokmal], Polish, Portuguese [Brazilian], Russian, Slovenian, Serbian [Cyrillic], Swedish, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese

Languages that are [almost complete in Pootle | Link to https://translate.apache.org/projects/aoo40/] (short before 100 % and could be released when finished):

Arabic, Croatian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Kabyle, Kannada, Kazakh, Norwegian [Nynorsk], Pashto, Persian, Romanian, Tatar, Ukrainian, Uyghur

Join the new wave to get OpenOffice and its website localized into your favorite language.

Only the following paragraph: Wait until the NL overview webpage is updated.

Check out for yourself. Just search for your favorite language on the [Native Language overview | Link] webpage and click on the link. If you see no content - help to create it. If you see rough information - help to complete it. If you see outdated data - help to get it up-to-date.

See the explaination for [how to edit the Native Language (NL) Websites | Link].

Contact us via the [L10N mailing list | Link].

See the general explaination for [what a mailing list is | Link].

Thank you from the OpenOffice community

Content looks nice (and I'll surely draw from it for my DrupalCon
Budapest talk!); I would maybe add a list of "priority" languages where
we would be able to use volunteers immediately. So, for example, listing:
- All languages where OpenOffice is released but the website still need
work or (worse) says we don't have OpenOffice in that language yet.
- Languages that are almost complete in Pootle
https://translate.apache.org/projects/aoo40/ like Arabic

Yes, makes sense. See above for the updated version of the blog post.
Scary long the list of incomplete/unmaintained webpages. :-(

Thanks

Marcus
