Kurdish translations for the kids

One of the wonders of Open Source Software is that the infrastructure is open for everyone to contribute. This has an striking effect on translating software to several different languages in a much easier way than it is to convince a big company to do so with its products.

Today I found an email in the rosetta mailing list about people getting the grips with the Kurdish version of Ubuntu, a GNU/Linux distribution sponsored by Canonical Ltd., meant to be easy to use for everyone.

I wonder how long it will take for other software companies will have Kurdish language support for their products...
