Hi All,

For the last month or so, Dan Mills and I (both of Mozilla Labs) have been
touring around Europe and Asia doing PR. It became very clear that Ubiquity
needs to enable a global community by providing better on-ramps to
participation in more languages. Everywhere I went, I heard frustration that
all of our documentation (when it exists) is written only in English. That
makes it hard for contributors to get up to speed on a project, and for
potential contributors to find out about a project.

To get the ball rolling, we've made some simple hooks for translating the
tutorials into other languages. I know a number of folks on this list have
mentioned that they'd be interested in helping out. Now's the call to
action!

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Ubiquity/Ubiquity_0.1.2_User_Tutorial#In_other_languages
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Ubiquity/Ubiquity_0.1_Author_Tutorial#In_other_languages

In terms of impact, the Ubiquity User Tutorial is the 10th most visited site
on the Mozilla Wiki! The Author Tutorial is in the top 50 (and still has had
around 100,000 reads). Even partial translations will go a long way into
helping a lot more people get involved.
