Telugu Localization Meetup-2017

[Dinesh Mv]

Hello All,

I am glad to announce one of the most significant Telugu Localization event "Telugu L10n Meetup" at Hyderabad on 29th and 30th July,2017.
Organised by Mozilla in collaboration with Swecha and Telugu Wikipedia to facilitate the native speakers of Telugu to access Technology in their own language. A little about Swecha and Telugu Wikipedia.

Swecha built the first Telugu operating system built on Linux named Swecha (which means Freedom). Since then it has been contributing to various FOSS projects. Their efforts in accelerating Localization is quite visible in the contributors they have in the Telugu Locale.

Telugu Wikipedia is a very vibrant group and growing consistently. They have more than 67000+ Telugu Wiki pages, hundreds of Wiki books and many more. Their spirit and commitment is commendable.
We collaborated together to create a huge impact in helping the Telugu.

Here are a few accomplishments before the event:
20+ new contributors participated in the pre-event activity.
2000+ strings were translated as part of the pre-event activity.
Built strong contributors base.
Swecha organization is setting up Pontoon as their l10n platform
Launching Firefox Focus in Telugu Locale.
