GILT is an acronym for Globalization Internationalization Localization Technology, it encompasses a broad range of topics, which impact how products can be made available to a global audience & market. Without applying it, it is not possible for a product to have a wide reach, beyond the originating geography and language. GILT applies not just to software domain but to all products which are manufatured and sold, marketed, along with knowledge itself which available in one language only needs to be made available to many. At FUEL-GILT conference 2014 ( http://fuelproject.org/gilt2014/program), a proposal was put forward by Harshad Gune (SICSR) and Karunakar (IndLinux) to create a curriculum around GILT, since any new entrants to it always have a learning barrier. Acquiring full GILT knowledge requires learning and and training, for which at least in India no formal course exists. As an extension to the proposal, at Gnunify we intend to have a BoF session for interested participants, to discuss and take the idea forward, with next steps being identifying formal courses which can have a GILT angle or special course for GIILT. Also plan to do a short summer school on GILT to test the waters for demand for such curriculum. More information about GILT in curriculum - http://www.indlinux.org/wiki/index.php/GILT_Whitepaper
