The I18n Team

Translation.svg

Internationalization is essential to make OpenStack ubiquity. The mission of OpenStack I18N team is to make OpenStack ubiquitously accessible to people of all language backgrounds, by enhancing OpenStack software internationalization, providing translation, maintaining a translation platform and managing translation process for high quality translations.

"Internationalization is the process of designing a software application so that it can be adapted to various languages and regions without engineering changes. Localization is the process of adapting internationalized software for a specific region or language by adding locale-specific components and translating text." - from wikipedia.

The OpenStack I18N team will take responsible for the I18n and L10n of OpenStack. Our work will include:

  • I18n enhancement and test
  • Translation of documentations, messages, websites, and etc.
  • Translation platform maintenance and enhancements

Roles in I18n Team

We uses Transifex to manage the translation. There are four different roles in a translation project.

  • Maintainer: a person responsible for the whole Project in Transifex, who has full control over all its aspects.
  • Coordinator: a privileged member in a translation team who can help in team management tasks, such as approving new members and reviewing contributions to that language. We also have task coordinators for specific tasks.
  • Member (Translator) : a person who can submit translations.
  • Reviewer: a person who can proofread translations and mark them as reviewed.


Besides translation, we also have below roles.

  • tool developers: people who develop the scripts and related tools for I18n.
