Language coordinators

The Sailfish OS translations for most parts are done as a community effort. And in order to maintain the quality of the translations, coordinators who are fluent in their respective languages are required.

A language coordinator is a person who has permissions to submit translations, and review suggestions made by others. More details on the coordinator role can be found from the L10N section of the Sailfish OS documentation.

Below is a list of current languages and their coordinators, and as you can see we are lacking coordinators on several languages. If you would like take the lead on a certain language (or step down from that role), post a reply in this thread, or send a direct message to me (@Keto)

(? after a coordinator means that they have not been active in a while)

If needed, I can step in as a third German language coordinator.

I’m not an active user of Sailfish anymore. And don’t visit or update the Dutch translation that much. So not sure if it is was to keep me as a coordinator.

I can step in as second Belarusian language coordinator

I am not actively using Sailfish OS now. I don’t know when I will be back. Feel free to remove me from being the Malayalam language translation co-ordinator and pass it on to a more active user instead.
