Mwaiseni ku Bemba Translators

We try to translate OpenSource Projects into Bemba, a local Language widely spoken in Zambia. We are still in the process setting up everything, so you are joining in an early stage. We chose the Ubuntu Project as our Base, because of the easy Systems in place. We still try to translate as much as possible upstream (at the original project). This effort is purely voluntary and so we can do with as many hands as possible. We need people to translate, review, evangelise and even to just provide moral support to the team.

Please note that although we are translating into Bemba, we will use the English language for communication as our team is comprised of other non-native Bemba speakers and indeed those who will be providing other support services other than the actual translations. The translation guidelines are located at the url below:
