Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Luganda Localization Project(New)
My username is *pintert3*. With regards to the Help project, I don't know how long translating the UI will take, probably a while, so I'm making no promises. But since I'm part of a growing community of open source language support over here, I think at one point we may have enough people helping out in the translations. So if it doesn't cost much, then I'd say open the Help Project too, but no promises in hitting them both in time for any deadlines now.

Welcome, and thanks very much for stepping up to help! I'm doing marketing and community outreach at The Document Foundation, so while I'm not involved in localisation directly, I can help you to build up a local community. For instance, I can help to spread the word on social media, encourage people in your area to take part, and send you materials for local events (when they're possible - eg flyers, stickers etc.) So let's stay in touch, and once you have something we can link to (eg the start of a localised version of the site), I'll help to let more people know!
