## TALK TOPICS

For the first time, FOSDEM will hold a devroom on all things related to 
translating FLOSS projects.

* Recruiting new people to translate your project.
* How it works in your project to translate softwares, websites, 
packages, manuals, tools, and so on.
* Which tools are used by translators.
* Exchange experiences between FLOSS projects.
* Rewarding volunteer contributors and keeping volunteers motivated.
* Showing which languages your project has been translated.

Again, these are just suggestions. We welcome proposals on any aspect of 
translations!

* If you already have a Pentabarf account, please don’t create a new one.
* If you forgot your password, reset it.
* Otherwise, follow the instructions to create an account.
* Once logged in, select "Create Event" and click on "Show All" in the 
top right corner to display the full form.
* Your submission must include the following information:
     - First and last name / Nickname (optional) / Image.
     - Email address.
     - Mobile phone number (this is a very hard requirement as there

you’d like to share as part of your submission - Twitter handle, GitHub 
activity history - whatever works for you. We especially welcome videos 
of you speaking elsewhere, or even just a list of talks you have done 
previously. First time speakers are, of course, welcome!
     - For issues with Pentabarf, please contact
