Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Re: restarting Hindi localization team

Hi Mike,

 Sure we can work on that sometime. To start with need to get hang of 
this, see what all is done from previous work & approving pending 
suggestions.

From what I know Hindi translation activity - earlier for OpenOffice & 
later LibreOffice, had organizational support - first NCST then CDAC for 
OOO , later Red Hat India L10n team for LibreOffice.

That stopped once localization went out of their focus, or people 
driving it moved on.

It has been a challenge to get people into Libreoffice work, compared to 
say Gnome/KDE etc where people find it easier to work in the sense can 
pick up a small app and do it and see result quickly.

Weblate certainly lowers the entry barrier & should help. I can see some 
ppl put in suggestions but since no one to approve, persons must have 
lost interest.

So once take stock of the project, then can start prodding folks to join in.

Regards,

Karunakar
