Hi All Recently I heard about an incident where a potential contributor wanted to contribute something to an ASF project but had found it difficult to interact because of the language barrier. They had very limited English skills.
I'd like to start a discussion to get some ideas around what we could do in general to encourage or help people who may find it hard to become involved at the ASF because of language. I seem to remember that the latest ASF D&I Survey had some findings around language confidence and that it had sometimes acted as a barrier for new contributors. Do we have any plans, initiatives or existing tools that could help with this?. It would be great to get some feedback from anyone that has experienced this language barrier and discuss what could be done to improve the situation and help others. Does anyone have any comments, suggestions or ideas? I'd like to hear them. Please join the conversation and let's see what can be done. Thanks Sharan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
