[Wikimediaindia-l] (Maybe) introducing Mifos and asking for your help

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
Mifos is an initiative of the Grameen Foundation that provides a solid
footing for organisations who are involved in micro financing. The aim of
the Grameen foundation is that everyone has access to credit at affordable
rates. The Mifos initiative supports the administration of the microfinance
industry. It is Open Source and it is used in many countries both in Asia
and in Africa.

At translatewiki.net we support Mifos with its internationalisation and its
localisation. A great amount of work has already gone in making this
software ready. As the next release of the software is imminent, we are
looking for people who can help us with localisation in the languages of
Africa, India.

The rally that is needed to make the software ready for use has started and
there are signed books to be won for the people who help us make a
difference.

In my blogpost you find more details and background information.

Please forward this e-mail if you think you know someone who can help make
Mifos relevant for micro finance organisations near you.
Thanks,
       GerardM aka Gerard Meijssen
