Summary of contributions to Ubuntu

Ive started translating Ubuntu long before I started using it. I started contributing at 2006, started using it in 2008. Since I was into software translation for many years and I really liked the idea of open source I translated open source software before I was able to use it (I had some applications that needed a proprietary Operating System. After being involved in the translation of Ubuntu for about a year I became the Hebrew translation team leader, few months later I got my permissions to commit translations to GNOME and ever since I do my best to sync translations with upstream or translate upstream only when possible.

I have 675 forum messages in the Israeli forums, some regarding translation while others technical support in various fields.

Now working as

Currently focus on

  • Setting some standards for open source translation while supporting Hebrew translators.

  • Writing some explanation documents to a project I established called Gezer Project (Hebrew).

Future Plan

  • Promote open source usage at the Israeli education system.
  • Help deal with RTL problems.
  • Reaching more Israeli translators and developers to help develop Ubuntu.
