The Ministry of Digital Affairs and the localization community aiming to showcase Taiwan's open
source contributions and promote civic tech and open source tools and local communities.
A long-time cream cheerleader to Koska, the conference for open source coders, users and
promoters, engaged in marketing and outreach efforts.
Enjoy creating charming and engaging designs to inspire love for open source.
Please join me in welcoming Anne.
Okay, hello F1, I'm from Taiwan and this is my topic.
I'm a new and cultural community member from OCR just mentioned before and I'm the
Koska band here since 2013.
It's a conference for open source coders, using promoters in tech tech Taiwan and I'm from
OCR and we have a non-profit foundation that we really close field about open tech
community and government with CISO and the private sector.
And also we have co-fildered with local founders and international pound and regional
founders.
And we focus on five focus on the open data open source of government and also the digital
rise and the internet freedoms.
And maybe we can mention about our open tech feature of future 10 years.
Our open source is not a while of first term, we boost the open source ecosystem.
We hope that open trend can apply in more business in Taiwan and also we really appreciate
that we can have an impairment of the public money and public code in the government
agency.
So these are all light of my today's talk.
We have the, I'm talking about the impotence of localization for the Taiwan's community
and the project assumption and also the second part we are talking about the framework
like I use a cover reference for the multi-step holder in the organization.
And he has some territory for each of us and we have high fast.
And also I would talk about our role inside of OCR we have the central coordinators.
In the third part we are talking about P-Find, K-Find, K-Find and K-Bogs area of ultimatizing,
ultimatizing the government perspective and the open source and also the collaboration
of more Taiwan and the communities and also the third part engagement with local industry
and the international communities.
So the first step was the importance of a localization for Taiwan's community and the
project assumption.
So let's now have a background of this project.
This project is really initial in the very early stage of the multi-modized the ministry
of digital affairs in Taiwan.
It just really, really needs ministry and since 2002 actually we get a zero-year-old
one country of this, we are really, first of all, in the country we cooperate with this
ministry.
This is 2002, also if I have cooperate with MOTA and the state is the local tech business
and the government, this is the government fund localization project.
And their goal is that they are not to make an a civic attack and the open source
tools more accessible in Taiwan.
So actually we help with the international, actually what we do is make an international
open source project, tech and loot and the truth locally in Taiwan.
So through our history, let's year also year have attempted to map out the 30 years of
the open source development history in Taiwan.
Taiwan's earliest open source project is almost began with lost localization efforts
and the instructional documentary.
So anyway, because as a lot of hardware is original in English or other forums, forums,
language.
So localization is really important for us to have to advocate the open source to everybody.
And open source obviously have been role in these open source localization, also also
have as a coordinator, first letting the collaboration between the government and the communities
and in the history.
And our final, finally, some project will contribute back to the afternoon and well others
become a localization for Taiwan.
Then, they thought I wanted to take here, I wanted to introduce my multi-styleholder localizing
network.
So, this is my often work, first we prepare pre-translation and prepare for the project.
As the, as the, you can see the stakeholder icons in the left tongue, you can see, with the
light brew once is the water, the water government that cooperation with us and with
the brew once is the local tech thing, why they do.
And with the purple once, the partner, translator, and those are our Taiwan's localization
communities.
And also the original one is from OCEF, Co-Technology, what we do to pay others.
First of all, each of these, each of the projects, when we get, when we negotiate with
the international project and we will have prepared a task for the translation.
And we, as the, as, as the, as the sizing, the chance to the translation to the professional
and the community, both both the professional and the community, chance data together to
complete the project.
And we use the, we use the webnet to, to make them work together.
Then, then, after we have the first time translated from into the Chinese, we have the first
stage of peer review.
And as we have the first stage of peer review, our tech, local tech, will help us to
stand out the demo and environment.
And it is really important because the government, the government in Taiwan, just want to
see or pass your process while you are doing now and do, do you, do you finish which
worse?
And you will come to the, come to the environment demo in time to check out what we are
doing now.
So, after the set out of the demo, in demo environment, we just put the first stage
peer review review web that, on the important translation, we will do the second stage of peer
review.
And those, those, those, those, those, those, those, those, those, those, those, those, these,
we will finish our, our project and, but we do our project in, in the same time, also
everywhere, well, come there with the community and also come to the international issue,
or there is some promoting this translation project.
And also, we can see the light blue things that government do in the, you know, in the
best side.
Then, for the first, after we've finished the first stage, we are trying to arrange the
cursory with the, the cursory with the government, because in Taiwan, we have a lot of
um, um, in government that use the different words that as the Taiwan community use.
Then it's really, really, it's really, uh, for the community, they really, we don't like
those words, those words, which government choose, but we use this, we use the cursory
concerns, confirmation, in this step, government, take their, is take their, what their
conceitors.
And we, arrange those conceitors and have a negotiation with the community.
Some community, they're, they're saying, a, is a credit, is right, and we change it.
So in the first stage, we will be, we use the, at the first stage period, we will use
the cursory, we cooperate with the, with the government.
And after the first, the second stage of here review, the government, they will have, uh, to
approve of, of, of, of, of, of, of, after they approve of all the result, then we can, we can
upstream, we can upload back to the afternoon.
Because they really concern about, because these, uh, these, uh, government, best government,
they have, they have, they have money inside, so they say, they, the worst, most, very
accurate, accurate, where I, right, to, on, on, on, on, on the, on the, on the, on the
afternoon.
So after, of all, we are localized to the translation feedback to the, aftering.
So in this multi-houters, then we, the purpose of this thing, when we are trying to ensure
that, while a government provides a finding, we still want that community to, in test,
autonomy, prevent the directly government, because most of Taiwan, Taiwan's, uh, community
or localization communities, they don't like the, uh, lost paper work or lost, instruction
from the government.
So, obviously, in, in, in, in, in the, we just trying to need to go to the, they, they,
both up to, they're going to have, they have a consensus, they're quite, quite, how, how
we, to do the things together, and the same part is that, in, has all of localization
security, first of all, information between the local business, texting and the open source
community.
And, by pro, by the, if you're setting up the testing environment, the interim with the web
net, government official can participate in the localization process.
This is why we, uh, we choose the lower web and that to, to do it.
And, uh, applying this framework, I have some key consideration, maybe I'm going to discuss
with everybody.
Somehow, generally, I already have their own legalizing towards the workflow.
So, our approach is to, prioritize the communication with the upstream maintenance, or
a student is extending localization team to manage the last-scale edit, is open, avoid, or
distribute current communities.
And different, you know, optional between the professional and the professional, professional
translators and the community viewers, and we require, we offer you all, OSEF, to make
it that and analyze the possibilities.
I think that work, it was, and, you know, about, we have a three years project, and,
suddenly, some limitation of current process design, since the government corruption
are part of bad and maintaining credit, his standards is a priority.
Making the release process is less feasible.
We can only fully resist and contribute a upstream after, obtain the whole approval of
an over-order result from the government.
But, as we know, the, the almost of open source project release frequently, but the government
didn't let, we can, trace on the, frequently, of, of, of the open source project.
And this, come, come, see, then, the open source spring, we invite the continuous and
transfer, the consumer issues.
And they are straightforward, because area, or OSEF, called, in the, called, in the localization
strategy.
The history of it is one is that we, OSEF, see the government perspective on the open
source.
And the second part, that we incorporate collaboration among the Taiwan's communities, and
engagement with the local international communities.
What is life important, we want to optimize the government perspective on open source.
As many, many people in, come to our list, then, well, as you have the minister, the open
source, actually, a row, we have the ministry of the open source community.
Isn't, in that ministry, in not all, C.V. servants are fully understand the collaboration,
name, courage, culture of the open source communities.
Some government, personally, even assume that all the open source communities operate
in a single, a meaningful way.
So there was a whole, all of the project you choose.
She was having in the same, in the same process, and you have to use the same words.
And we are very, very confused, because some of them, like they, they asked the some work
in the game to use, maybe, use in the next call, and they were totally different
meaning of that.
But they were, they were asked to do that, because we are governance, so all the, all the
project, before after we, after we contribute, the money inside, and you should be
have the same words.
But we try a lot to educate them, each community, each community have their own culture.
So, we educate the government of visual, and open source community, and the current
collaboration model.
Two types of experience, how the characteristics of the governance structure of different
international open source projects.
We do the, we try to tell them, in the game, they have their own, own, own, country, culture,
and free OTP have their own country, we come to culture.
And we deliver the COVID-19 policy, and this is the way that we find out that we're trying
to, in the grocery, we ask the government to make their concern on the web, but there's
a net, we answer what the community comes in to the government.
The government will say, oh, your concern is, maybe it's great, so, after this concern,
to ensure the consistency of the temporary across the stakeholder, everybody will use the
same words, so, collaboration of multi-carbon communities, communities, and due to the
characteristics of the Chinese language, some translation management tools are able to
standardize over the terminal technology choice.
Additionally, the past, the contributors, family different priorities have never hindered
us terminology, preference in the use habits.
So we partner with the Taiwan localization communities to establish the new review process,
to ensure the high standard and the quality of the governance for the government, these
government, government, and project.
And also, we, collaboration amongst Taiwan's community, we have to make a two-man, a major
survey, surveys, and a close card, 2020 and 2004.
And in the 2020 tree, we just identified the critical open source project that hold Taiwan's
Taiwan's, Taiwan's communities, and 80's really needed, and the first one is bewildered.
The second one is Fender, that we did then take inside because Fender got too many
worse.
We cannot, because in Taiwan, every project that you should finish in maybe about half
a year or one year.
So the Bender's get too many worse.
We didn't get it.
And also, the six, one, three, you get the same problem.
So now we come to the seventh one to the most, yeah.
The next one, they are showing truth in the next, the next purpose for which we want to
taking.
In case you wish, the local business and international communities is really important
for us.
Many Taiwanese business, tech teams, lack of experience in open source contribution culture.
They used the open source project, but they didn't will know how the community was also.
So they may find the bad, but they didn't know how to communicate with the upstream.
How to, how to, they know how to deploy the party, but they didn't know how to, how to
report, they have some problems and how to negotiate with the upstream.
So obviously, a facility on the standing of licensing and the construction for and the
afternoon engagement.
So these interactions goes both way.
This is the example that we suggest for addressing for the local need.
Also, if we have, we have help with the metamorphose report and resolve the data to display
bug in Chinese, CKJ's group, and the work with the upstream communities to address
the significant difference between the Simepile and the traditional Chinese.
And this bug, I just used the metamorphose over five years, but after I joined this project,
I decided that there is a date display problem, because here we should have a September 26th
and here we should have a date here, but it's hard to display quite a day there to the upstream.
So let's try to address these needs to make this much more, much more obvious to fix
it.
Also, we say this is in both ways.
So I had to arrange the frequency as questioned from low international communities.
First, the one is that really is an issue related to the date and the currency and other
formatting in the project.
So we're trying to take a screen strad of our usage homepage, ensure that display in the
poverty adjustment, it had poverty adjustment after week's suggestion.
And the second part is that a lot of international committee will express that
can the Simepile Chinese be directly converted into the traditional Chinese.
This is not a political issue.
This is the problem of lay out a grammatical difference.
Some of the words we have the company up inside, meaning between the two words and the right
in those writing systems.
Also, we have the different rates of the different words in the inside of it.
Also, we have a frequency as a this question is that for the project,
that generate PDF or image, which the font article, CJK compiler level.
Actually, there's no one single font file, cancel off or issue.
But some font families such as notosycaget series can complement each others.
So next is the last part of mine on the takeaway.
Well, welcome to its parole or everybody to explore our collaborative framework
for the multi-stepholder localization.
We are also to move forward how we can improve it together.
Made the government can corroboration, feel a natural and similar work with the open source community.
And the second one is that sure this collaborative models, also for the government,
the business and the community, I'm really happy we all go together because we're just trying to educate each
others. And as part, while traditional and simplified Chinese character, we could be these
amateurs. But they should be treated as the stringed language with the different
groups structure, avoid to using automatists, simplify to the traditional convention tool.
As this time, we just find out a lot of parts that use this kind of tool.
And if you use this kind of tool, it might be much more, we need more required a lot of effort
for the manual correction by the traditional user and localization community.
That's all. Thank you.
Sorry, I forgot to thank you, lost part that we have helped me a lot in these three years
that come UK forms and marches and EV standards of public code be wooden.
Let's call for your TV game, manuals and GDI handbooks. And since the subuncer
for my no-turbole, chose all these days. And thank you, everybody.
I was wondering if you could tell us a little more about the list of projects that I
already did in my one, especially in this case, in the study of the conference.
Okay, how are this list come? Is that we arrange a bow 13, a bow 13 of it? And how we
choose it like we asked the which is that common communities, lost who will use the open source.
They will answer, which one did they really use? And then them to them list out. And after
with them, let us list them list. And we just found out some is that really civic or civic
can also the civic server. We will use and also civic server. And they say they want to
use. So after that we have arranged a bow. I remember we arranged a range of about 30 choice
for everybody to have the survey. And after this survey, in this survey, we have a bow.
I remember we have about 500 people's in the Coast Council is the biggest open source conference
in Taiwan. Also in the Gabriela summit, we have this survey for them. About 500 people that
answered it and we have this this ranking. Yeah, a lot of people say they, but actually,
I remember from the 11 to the 16, 17, they really have a cross, really cross,
really cross point of it. Yeah, they like it. And also, I know that some of our local
government, let's say maybe we should use ratio 21st. Yeah.
Actually, the project that I have showing it, because for the least, I joined a bow after the
EV. Yeah. So the EV one after I have, I have continually, we have a negotiation with the community
in Taiwan. They say if they have any help or okay, if they, if they, if they, if they, if they,
if they have any help, we can still help them to continue the business. Because actually,
most of the, we have, because before we joined the project, about, some of the is about
40 or 40 or 50% have translated. And absolutely, we began back into the 80 or 90.
And we found out, after you get into this, this high-quality, high-quality,
a lot of the community was saying, oh, we're trying to eat. They, they, some of them,
we just found some of them, the, the, the, the communities, the members come back. I'm really
happy to see that. Yeah. Now is a wonderful time to pause. So we can have an
next speaker. Thank you again. Yeah. Thank you.
