Ljubljana l10n hackaton 2016

Ljubljana, July 9-10, 2016

Ljubljana, the beautiful capital of Slovenia, will host l10n hackaton.
Localisation Hackathon is for the Balkan region and some other countries. Our selected volunteers will face two days of hard work and learning. Their goal is to localize as much as possible, work with other team members, they can not see every day and also meet fellows from other communities. After hard work there will be one evening of pure fun and one afternoon of sight seeing. We will visit some hidden spots in beautiful Emona. Oh, Ljubljana :)
