From post, its clear, survey helped to identify number of hidden issues. Dunno what should be time frame, but soon we should revisit this inputs. I was thinking, if we could also take this blog to Fedora community but simply duplication is good. IMO we should make small post with link to Zanata blog post at community blog.

Please, its not only me. Rather the whole active group present At FAD thought there is need of FG governance group. We have created this proposal in Globalization FAD itself.

Proposal: Fedora G11N Steering Committee
by Pravin Satpute 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

Hi All, I am sure, most of the people working with Fedora I18N, L10N from 5-6 year must be aware regarding Fedora L10N Steering Committee. [1] As far as i know this committee was active around 2009 and very effective. During Fedora G11N activity day discussions, we again felt there is need for some kind of official committee to drive Fedora Globalization activities. Fedora is growing faster with number of different domains and G11N also need to adapt those changes quickly to remain on the track. For this purpose and in line with [1], we were thinking of Fedora Globalization steering committee. I have created initial proposal for it. [2] Its open for feedback, please feel free to share other active members, discuss in your respective language groups. This is just initial proposal and i am sure, we can improve and make it more effective with active participation.

Re: my summary report of G11N FAD Tokyo 2015

Thank you Noriko to sharing this report of FAD. I'm a newbie of l10n and I don't know perfectly english language. For this I understand the importance of translation team, and I thank you very much for this optimism injection by your report and your new ideas for this team. I hope one day to attend a fedora meeting, like a fad, perhaps again in Japan that I love :-D Best regards. /Veon 2015-11-27 11:05 GMT+01:00 Noriko Mizumoto <noriko(a)fedoraproject.org>: > Hi > > As all we know, we had successful and memorable first G11N FAD 2015 in > Tokyo between 1st to 3rd November.

Wiki for Fedora 24 Globalization improvement plans
by pravin.d.s＠gmail.com 16 Dec '15

16 Dec '15

Hi All, We had some initial discussion during Fedora 23 development cycle on this. Ticket No. [1] In last one year at least 3-4 enthusiast students came to me and asked, i want to become Fedora contributor tell me how can i start it. From G11N perspective, i think its good if we plan our improvement plans for upcoming Fedora release and simply ask new contributor to go through it and ping existing owner or mentor and take over the bug. This solves couple of things. 1. New contributor get list of task planned for ongoing Fedora release. There is good chance that his improvement he can see in coming Fedora release. 2. He gets mentor as well :) There is one second objective behind this. We do lots of changes in Fedora and somehow miss to highlight it. I think this page will give whole picture of improvement plans for Fedora and after release it will be useful for release notes and talking point. We cant do everything with Change proposal. So here it comes. I have created Wiki page. [1] If you are planning any particular activity for Fedora 24. From i18n. l10n or Zanata point. Please mention it there.
