According to new policy, all projects must be sponsored by
at least one Community Group.

So re-send the project proposal here to get approval.
Project Proposal: Globalization Workspaces
G11N (Globalization) Consolidation has released a couple of source tarballs
in Sun Download Center last year:
http://dlc.sun.com/osol/g11n/downloads/software/current/
Community users can download and browse the source codes of G11N Consolidation.
But they can not put back their modifications.
Creating a live repository will solve this problem.
According to OpenSolaris' policy, we need to create a project firstly
before we can set up a live repository for G11N Consolidation.
So we propose a new project: Globalization Workspaces.
Project Name: Globalization Workspaces
Abbreviation: G11N WS
Endorsed by: the I18N and L10N community
Purpose: create and maintain live repositories for G11N Consolidation
