Hi all, A Mailing list has been created on the lists.hosef.org machine to house the "Hawaii Linux translation project".
What the Hawaii Linux translation project aims to do is build upon the proposal made by Jim Thompson at TPOSSCON 2006. This presentation can be heard here: http://www.tposscon.com/audio.php http://www.hosef.org/media/TPOSSCON-JimThompson-2006.01.12.mp3 - Direct MP3 download (17 Mb - 19min) http://www.hosef.org/media/TPOSSCON-JimThompson-2006.01.12.ogg - Direct Ogg Vorbis download (12 Mb - 19min) Jim's proposal involved a localized version of Linux that would initially include translating everything into Hawaiian. This would then extend to our own Hawaiian distribution of Linux which would include calendars, artworks... The whole bit. The proposal was to use Ubuntu/Kubuntu Linux as this has the best infrastructure in place to support such a project. This is through the Rosetta translation system. This post is just a general overview. Please feel free to contribute to this discussion. - Julian http://www.julianyap.com Further links to check out: 1. Ubuntu Linux - http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ 2.
