Welcome! I take it you know Glezos already if not make sure to try to get
ahold of him online. A focus on localization is a very worthy goal and
among some of the better work Fedora is up to right now.
Are you looking to help code some of our apps for better localization? If
that's the case we're using TG with mostly genshi templates though some
kid. We could certainly use some more help. Stop by #fedora-admin if you
get a moment tomorrow. It would be good to discuss some of this a bit
more.
Yes, I've been in the background for a while and I know glezos. I have already
started working with the codebase for Damned Lies and Transifex in
collaboration with glezos. I'm also regularly on #fedora-l10n and
#fedora-admin though I'm on Australia-time :)
cheers,
