The Rosetta Foundation is one of the most exciting projects that I've been involved in...
..in my professional career...
..and I've been involved in localization for...
..approximately 20 / 25 years.
Its so exciting because, it aims...
..to bring, information,
digital content,
knowledge, and education...
..to the three-quarters of the world's population...
..who currently don't have access to it...
..because they don't represent a market...
..to the large digital content providers.
The Rosetta Foundation was launched this year...
in the summer,
at AGIS, the Action for Global Information Sharing...
..at the University of Limerick...
..by Professor Don Barry...
..the President of the University of Limerick,
and it is a 'not for profit'...
..organisation...
..that is going to be run...
..along the lines of...
..social entrepreneurship,
to bring...
..initiatives,
people,
and communities together...
..to collectively...
..translate, and adapt, and localise,
..digital content,
for people, who currently...
..don't have access to it.
