Polyglots Coffee Break (Americas) – Dec. 9, 2021 at 22:00 UTC

It has been a while since the last Americas Polyglots weekly chat. Let’s change that with a hangout!

On Thursday, December 9, 2021 at 22:00 UTC, let’s host an Americas timezone-friendly Polyglots hangout or “coffee break.” A “coffee break” usually refers to a short, casual hangout where everyone can connect and chat for fun. While there is no set agenda, everyone can bring questions, ideas, or even updates on what’s happening in your localeLocale Locale = language version, often a combination of a language code and a region code, for instance es_MX denotes Spanish as it’s used in Mexico. A list of all locales supported by WordPress in https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/.

Unlike our usual weekly meetings, this will be hosted on Google Hangouts so we can chat with other Polyglots before the end of the year. The link will be shared in the Polyglots channel on the Making WordPress Slack a few minutes before the call.

Everyone is welcome! You do not need to be based in the Americas to join. Coffee is also optional, but always welcome, too 🙂

Props to @tokyobiyori and @tobifjellner for helping to organize!

New GlotPress meetings

In the last months, there has not been a meeting to talk about GlotPressGlotPress GlotPress is the translation management software that powers Translate.WordPress.org. More information is available at glotpress.org..

In August, I have started working at Automattic to improve internationalizationInternationalization Internationalization (sometimes shortened to I18N , meaning “I - eighteen letters -N”) is the process of planning and implementing products and services so that they can easily be adapted to specific local languages and cultures, a process called localization. This is the process of making software translatable. Information about Internationalization for developers can be found in the Developer’s handbooks., localizationLocalization Localization (sometimes shortened to "l10n") is the process of adapting a product or service to a particular language, culture, and desired local "look-and-feel.", and GlotPress functionalities at translate.wordpress.org, in order to have the WordPress ecosystem translated into more languages, with more translated elements, and with better quality.

And, in order to improve, the best thing I can do is to talk with the members of the translation community, so that we can discuss the needs the translation community has and prioritize their development.

Therefore, what I want to propose is a biweekly meeting, in the #glotpress channel of “Making WordPress” Slack. The first meeting will be on Wednesday, October 20, 2021 at 07:00 UTC. I hope to see you all there with fresh ideas.
