Topics that have been identified so far are, e.g.:
- How to integrate a collaborative web-based translation management software into ILIAS?
- How to gather data on what language variables have a high priority to be translated?
- How to provide custom language packages for special target groups (e.g., "Simple German" or "Du-Form")?
