Topic: Panel Discussion: The future of WordPress Translation in India
WordPress Internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n) happens through the Polyglot Project, which is driven by a team of passionate volunteers who take care of the translations for a specific language.
WordPress being an Open Source project, i18n and l10n is very important. Having WordPress available in all possible local languages makes it accessible to everyone.
This panel discussion will focus on the Polyglots team’s efforts in India and possible direction of WordPress translations specifically in a diverse country like India with so many languages with so many varieties of scripts.
The experts on this panel are: Bigul Malayi, Chandra Patel, Naoko Takano, Nidhi Jain, and Vaidehi Singh Sharma.
