Translate.org.za is looking for people who can assist with the beta testing of translated OpenOffice software.

Director Dwayne Bailey says the organisation has translated OpenOffice, a word-processing program, into South African indigenous languages in the past year. The project was undertaken in phases, with the first translations done in Zulu, Sepedi and Afrikaans.

Now that there are translated versions in all South African languages, the next step is to test the software within a wider audience to ensure the language is correctly targeted and words are used within the right context. This will take place within the next week or two, Bailey says.
