Free software is a requirement for free communication in any language. Our goal is to empower language communities to build their own tools based on free software projects. We focus on of lesser-resourced languages, but also like to promote multi-lingualism in software projects in general. We want to give people the ability to use their mother tongue in everyday electronic communication, no matter where they are or what language they speak.
