This is the video showed during the wordpress translation day in april: http://wordpress.tv/2016/05/31/daniele-scasciafratte-glotdict-how-a-browser-extension-changes-your-translation-workflow/ I was thinking to use a different approach for mozfest like why you need a glossary to share with the community and with that example how can speed up the process.

Thanks for this, it is really helpful.

I will do the demo in english but in case also in Italian and Esperanto if you need it. I am working to do a survey for the wordpress community about glotdict and the glossary to have enough informations for that talk.

Mte90 commented 8 years ago

I published a post in the polyglots community of wordpress https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/2016/08/23/the-glossaries-in-the-wordpress-localization/

I gathered for the moment 22 participant on the survey about 15 different languages. Maybe 30 minute it's better for this talk.
