The Open Translation Tools workshop was held in Zagreb, Croatia from 29 November to 1 December. A video of the event has recently been released, check it out here, and if you are super inspired consider translating it too!

The workshop was an event organised by Aspiration Tech and the fearless Summit '07 co-hosts, Mi2, and was a chance for open translation tool developers, and open content creators to meet up and discuss translation needs and how they can be met. We mapped out currently available open translation tools, and developed translation use cases from the open content projects in attendance. These are available on the event wiki, along with in-depth notes from all the break-out groups and discussions we had featuring topics such as: where machine translation is at, coordinating and supporting translation volunteers, using RSS feeds for accessing content for translation purposes, preparing content for translation, and building our dream translation tool. There's much more on the wiki, so be sure to check it out, and feel free to add any comments, suggestions or ideas to build this into a more comprehensive resource.
