The objective is to provide the tools for community collaboration in localization tasks.

==Tasks==
* Organize localization teams, preferrably coordinated with other open community efforts.
* Work on the localization of a basic description of the Maemo platform and the maemo.org community.
* Provide tools for consolidated language/localization teams willing to have fully localized communities around maemo.org.
* Provide tools and documentation to improve the localization of applications.
* Establish channels to collaborate in the improvement of Maemo localization in officially supported languages.
* Provide tools and documentation to create and maintain Maemo localizations in languages supported at a community level.
* Co-ordinate efforts of translators of [[international pages]] in the wiki

==Status==

There was a [[Maemo-Barcelona_Long_Weekend/Localization|Localization]] track  during [[Maemo-Barcelona_Long_Weekend|Maemo Barcelona Long Weekend]]. The result of the workshop was the [[Community_localization|Community Localization System]].

=== Maemo 6 ===
In Harmattan the localizations files will use [http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.6-snapshot/linguist-ts-file-format.html Qt's .ts format]. For community L10n [http://qt.nokia.com/doc/4.6-snapshot/linguist-manual.html Qt Linguist] should already work fine.
