I am Siebrand Mazeland from the Netherlands. I'm product manager for Language Engineering at the Wikimedia Foundation and Community Manager at translatewiki.net, the project where MediaWiki core and many MediaWiki extension can be translated to most languages of the world. I'm responsible for the roadmap of MediaWiki at Wikimedia where it concerns language related features. i18n, input, output and localisation support are the main things we work on with the Wikimedia Language Engineering team[1] Are there any topics in particular that you would like to discuss here? If no, please do indeed feel free to lurk! [1] https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Language_Engineering_team -- this page is slightly outdated and we'll hopefully be updating it soon.

Greetings to from Indonesia! I still learn a lot from this community. I just watched the Quim session at last FOSDEM13[1] [1]http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Events/FOSDEM/2013_-_Lightning_-_Qgil Cheers -za, _______________________________________________ Mediawiki-i18n mailing list Mediawiki-i18n(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-i18n

Tin Aung Linn, great news I think. Two hours ago, a Fedora/Red Hat i18n engineer ported the m17n input method Mynamar XKB keyboard layout to jquery.ime[1]. jQuery.IME is the collection of input methods that is used in the Universal Language Selector[2], which is installed on some Wikimedia wikis at the moment (meta, wikidata, mediawiki.org -- no Wikipedias yet). It is also used on translatewiki.net. We cannot yet install it in place of WebFonts and Narayam because of some caching challenges that we hope to tackle within the next few months, although the exact time to fix is unknown at the moment. We are waiting for Wikimedia Foundation resources that can help the Language Engineering team with moving from squid to Varnish for text caching and then implement the rules needed to ensure that we can process accept language correctly.
