It looks like we need the equivalent of the Language Champions for the Mailman project: people willing to coordinate files and processes for their language or project. I'm willing to be the Vietnamese coordinator. I don't think I can take on being the Gnome or Debian or KDE or TP (etc.) coordinator, because I really don't know enough about their l10n procedures. We could have a page in the Translate Wiki which lists the Language Coordinators and Project Coordinators. Ultimately, effective Project Coordination will be something like the current Debian i18n infrastructure-in-embryo, which integrates Pootle into the overall structure. Other projects are watching the Debian pilot study with considerable interest. from Clytie (vi-VN, Vietnamese free-software translation team / nhóm Việt hóa phần mềm tự do) http://groups-beta.google.com/group/vi-VN ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
