Internationalizing Compiz Fusion

We are very pleased and gratified by your interest in getting Compiz Fusion translated into your language; you have come to the right place.

Compiz and Compiz Fusion have a large number of plugins. To configure them, we have configuration tools. Your efforts will help to make these tools available in your local language.

Translation is one of the valuable contributions which non-programmers can make to an open-source project.

How to get started

Here are the steps involved to make it happen:

• Visit http://l10n.compiz-fusion.org/pootle/.

• Register and start translating

• Alternatively you can post translations as an attachment on bugzilla. Mark them under i18n Component and not under plugins/ccsm.
