= The Fedora Localization Project =
Greece , Kapeleto


The goal of the Fedora Localization Project (FLP) is to bring everything around Fedora (the Software, Documentation, Websites and culture) closer to local communities (countries, languages and in general cultural groups). Usually this involves doing translations via PO files but is certainly not limited to that.
alampropoul , FAS


{{Admon/note |L10N | is an abbreviation of the term "Localization" by means of a so called numeronym, a way of replacing the middle letters of a word (in case 'ocalizatio') by naming the number of letters between the first and last letter of that word (in case 10): '''Localization'''}}

There are some [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo mailing lists] that interest members of the FLP.
 
* The main list is [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/trans trans list] ([http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/trans/ archive]), which holds discussions about translations, team coordination, etc.
* Some issues are discussed at [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/i18n i18n list]. If you are interested in input methods, international fonts, etc, you would want to join this as well.
 
==== Commits list ====
 
* We've setup the group 'l10n-commits' for those who would like to receive emails for commits in the <code>/cvs/l10n/</code> repo and various other emails.
* To subscribe, go to the [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/ Fedora Accounts System] and add yourself to [https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/l10n-commits l10n-commits]. Unfortunately the system needs approval, so someone should jump in to approve you, which should happen quickly.

== Fedora L10N Steering Committee ==
 
The Fedora Localization Steering Committee (FLSCo) leads the Fedora Localization Project (FLP).  Its mission is to provide the Fedora translators with necessary guidance, and support their efforts to localize the Fedora Project to multiple languages and cultures.
