ProjectProject Name: Arabic Package Optimization
Project Description: Improving support for Arabic language in Ubuntu by
giving more comprehensible
Interface words to arab users.
If you would be willing and able to do other projects instead, which ones?
I will work on chat programs (empathy or pidgin) to improve support for some
agents like yahoo.
Why did you like this idea?
I like this idea because it makes my favorite OS more user-friendly.
Project architecture:
writing a list of synonyms which are the most meaningful.
make these words in files and integrate them with ubuntu so that it can load
all this synonyms and match them.
Benefits:
This will help using ubuntu in a wider range of community.
I'm arab and I'm a good arabinc speaker, the language pack currently
provided with ubuntu is not interesting at all
when i tried to switch ubuntu to arabic i wasn't able to understand many
things and i became confused so i switched back
to the english interface.
Open Sourceit's my first OpenSource Project.
AvailabilityThis project will take from 15 days to 20 days.
I can begin at the begining of this summer.
I expect affording 17 hours/week for this project.
In summer I'll be based in Morocco almost of the time.
I have some studies in this summer + work.
