Hello, I'm Asmelash Teka, a 4th year Information Technology student at Mekelle institute of Technology, http://www.mekit.net/, Ethiopia. I'm very passionate about creating softwares that speak Ethiopian languages particularly Amharic and Tigrigna(There are more than 80 languages spoken in my country)!! I'm also a strong advocate of free and opensource software.
I belong to a localization group at MIT. In our group, there are some energetic young students highly interested to localize opensource software. You can visit our group page at http://groups.google.com.et/group/l10n-et and see the list of products we're working on. Most important to my request, our group is currently localizing openoffice. We're translating some po files and also learning how to build openoffice at the same time. We hope to finish and make it available for download with in one month(that's with out translating the help content). This is the main reason I need to lead the NLC for Amharic. Thanks in advance, asmelash --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@native-lang.openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@native-lang.openoffice.org
