Hi All,

First of all I would like to thank the entire FUEL Project community for their greater contributions to the success of the initiative we started five years ago. With the help of community volunteers and organizations we have achieved remarkable milestones through our journey till date.

Building the language standards in the open source and making it freely available in the open domain is one of our motto behind starting FUEL Project. Our objective is to establish a common and universal platform to support continued development and adherence of GILT standards by building the consensus for it's development, establishment and promotion with the help of community and organizations working towards the aim of democratization of content and wider awareness and acceptance of these standards.

The FUEL GILT Conference 2013 is being organized by Red Hat and C-DAC GIST. In this conference we are gathering industry localization experts, linguists, internationalization engineers, testing professionals working towards language technologies.

Participants would get a chance to network all the localization experts working in the industry as well as able to grab more opportunities available in this domain. There would be learning for the beginner localizers as well.

Keeping these objectives in mind we have identified following tracks for the papers:

    1. Globalization, Language and Translations (Something that showcase the importance of language, culture, it's role in the modern life, etc.)
    2. Standards: Linguistic resource (work towards Terminology, Glossary, Dictionary, Style Guide, Unicode, CLDR, FUEL Modules, Script Grammar, etc would lead into this category of development.)
    3. Tools & Technologies (An effort in the direction of development of translation management systems, Rendering Systems, Quality Assessment tools, Fonts, Input Methods, etc. would lead into this category.)
    4. Localization in FOSS (The volunteer localization efforts in the FOSS world, how they contribute, what they contribute, etc would fall in this track.)
    5. Open Track (Anything related to GILT and relevant matter could also be considered provided we get a space to allocate you a slot.)
