Native Language Projects

A Native Language Project has a native language list. They discuss about their activity on the list. Their activities include localization, translation, quality assurance, documentation, user support and marketing etc. For these activities they can use the site (ooo-site.apache.org/language-code), the wiki (wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/language-code) and the pootle server (translate.apache.org/projects/OOo/).

If you want to create your native language project, take the following steps.

...

Apache OpenOffice supports the legacy Native Languages of OpenOffice in three ways:

  1. by providing binaries in the native language (translators are needed for his step – see http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html),
  2. by hosting native language websites (the complete list can be found at http://www.openoffice.org/projects/native-lang.html),
  3. by establishing mailing lists related to a native language (see http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html for a partial listing)

The former OpenOffice.org structure using Levels for Native Language projects is not  applicable to Apache OpenOffice as nearly all development work including translation takes place on either the development list. or localization list – see http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html.  Native language mailing lists are established by request from the development list on an "as needed" basis. The existing Native Language websites are maintained by committers within the Apache OpenOffice project. Please refer to http://openoffice.apache.org/website-local.html for ways to modify the website. The following steps should help more with how to get started in helping with native language activities.

To become more involved in Apache OpenOffice localization, take these steps:

  1. subscribe the project development list (English), see: http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#development-mailing-list-public for native language mailing list requests and native language web site activities, or
  2. subscribe to the localization list (English), see: http://openoffice.apache.org/mailing-lists.html#localization-mailing-list-public to help with translation or native language web site activities
  3. Show your enthusiasm on the list and others will help you.

For a mailing list proposal:

  1. If you are proposing a native language mailing list, you will need to provide justification for it, and how it will be used. The name given to the list will depend on how the list is used – development, users, general, etc.
  2. If there is no objection against your proposal, then file a JIRA  issue to infrastructure "Create ((list subject)-(language-code)@openoffice.apache.org"
  3. When the list is created, the Apache OpenOffice project may help announce it using ooo-announce list.
  4. Or you can tell your friends or write a blog about your native language list and encourage your native language users and contributors to subscribe the list.
