I think all of us need to become more proactive in acting as ambassadors for
recruiting front-end localisation volunteers.
Each of us must have a growing list of international contacts, so it's
something we should remember to ask them where appropriate and as such
opportunities arise in our other communcations.
It won't happen unless we put in some concerted efforts through our personal
networking.
Best regards,
David
