<h1>FSFE announces 4 weeks of translation sprint</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) announces a translation sprint
|
|
for their web pages from 15 December 2008 to 11 January 2009. The aim of
|
|
this sprint is to provide information about Free Software and FSFE's work
|
|
in as many languages as possible.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
As one of its most important means of communication with the public, FSFE
|
|
hosts a web site at https://fsfe.org/. Translating the texts and
|
|
making them available for people with different native languages has
|
|
always been important, and thanks to the untiring work of dozens of
|
|
volunteers all around Europe, the pages are available in up to 26
|
|
different languages.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Translating FSFE's web pages is a huge task. More than 250 pages are
|
|
online, and several pages per week are added or updated and require new
|
|
translations. There's always something left to do. More help is always
|
|
welcome.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
So FSFE announces a four weeks translation sprint from 15 December 2008
|
|
to 11 January 2009, combined with a call for new volunteers. The job: to
|
|
translate from English to other European languages, and to proofread
|
|
translations. The mission: to fill as many translation gaps as possible.
|
|
The candidate: you.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Translating and proofreading texts is a precious contribution to the work
|
|
of FSFE and an excellent chance to spontaneously take part in its
|
|
activities without long-term obligations. And it's a great chance to
|
|
contribute in a way that doesn't cost money.
