List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: emacs-devel-bounces+ged-emacs-devel=m.gmane.org@gnu.org Original-Sender: "Emacs-devel" Xref: news.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:214323 Archived-At: Hi everyone, I have read many messages on the archive and talked extensively with a developer friend about this, so I think I understand that internationalization in the context of Emacs is extremely complex, as well as a very large job in terms of volume. Having said that, I would like to know if beyond the compatibility with various character sets and the availability of the tutorial in other languages (and other i18n improvements which, not being a dev, I will probably not understand), has the i18n process stopped? In other words, is there anyone currently working on additional i18n features for Emacs? I ask because I might be able to help with translators, or in other ways, assuming I can connect the utility of the work with the project I am starting. BTW, the project I am starting seeks to make Emacs and Emacspeak more accessible/understandable to non-technical users who are blind and speak either Portuguese, Spanish, French, or Arabic. Thank you, Fernando
