Re: [Wikimedia-IN-PUN] Fw: [Wikimediaindia-l] Translation sprint in Pune on 26 Novermber?

Dear All, You must have seen below email from Siebrand Mazeland. Pl. share your views on this and suggest a plan to have meet on 26th Nov. I think, this is a very good opportunity to interact with foundation people and work on the project. We need somebody from Pune to take lead in this.... I also suggest you all to put your views on the same thread i.e on wikimedia-in-pun(a)lists.wikimedia.org <wikimedia-in-pun(a)lists.wikimedia.org With Regards, Mandar V.

(I tried sending this 8 or so hours ago, but it looks like it didn't get through - apologies if it somehow ends up twice) Dear Indian Wikimedians, and those from near Pune in particular, In November the complete localisation team of the Wikimedia Foundation (I, Niklas, Amir, Gerard, Santhosh and Alolita) will be in India for the Wiki Conference India, the Mumbai hackathon and a team meeting. Our schedule allows for an event in Pune on Saturday 26 November 2011, if the Pune community thinks this is a good idea. We would like it to be a localisation sprint, in which we gather as many people as possible from the Wikimedia community, but maybe also from other open source translation communities, to work on the translation of MediaWiki and MediaWiki extensions used by Wikimedia for a few hours, and have some nice chats while doing that. We would of course need a venue with a decent internet connection, enough power, and participants would need to bring equipment that allows for them to work online in translatewiki.net or offline with a gettext editor. Is this something that is doable? -- Siebrand Mazeland Product Manager Localisation Wikimedia Foundation M: +31 6 50 69 1239 Skype: siebrand _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
