I was finishing the UI translation for the next GNOME 3.30 release, unfortunately our coordinator, Andika Triwidada, quiet busy with Asian Games 2018 so that he can’t reviewing and committing the translations. Then, today i becoming committer on GNOME l10n Indonesia, Andika promote me from reviewer to committer so i can help him to commit the translations.

I’ll commit the UI translations and hope it will be ready for GNOME 3.29.92 (GNOME 3.30 RC). You can help us to reviewing the UI translation by downloading the GNOME Next iso from openSUSE or Fedora Rawhide.

GNOME 3.30 will released on September 5. Have fun.

Epilog

It was fun. Because i’m part of GNOME foundation member and openSUSE member, combining two conferences that I part of them made easier for me to meet people from both of them even though I couldn’t attend all the talks.

What i expected there are GNOME booth with swag and conference t-shirt, but none of them.

Thank to Max Huang and team for awesome conference. Thanks to Franklin Weng and Eric Sun for dinner and ezgo t-shirt. Thanks to Nuritzi for GUADEC gift .ありがとうございました Ogasawara-san for Nikkei Linux Magz.
Special thanks to openSUSE for sponsoring my flight and GNOME Foundation for sponsoring my lodging.
