What is Wayuunaiki ?
From Wikipedia:
The Wayuu language, called Wayuunaiki, is part of the Arawak linguistic family predominant in different parts of the Caribbean. They have some minimal differences in dialect depending on the region of La Guajira they live in; northern, central or southern zones of this region. Most of the new generations speak Spanish fluently but they understand the importance of preserving their traditional native tongue.
Motivation
This project's goal is to bring Wayuunaiki support to Ubuntu Linux and to free open source software in general through the use of the Rosetta translating tools used within the Ubuntu project.
This idea originates and is inspired by various other initiatives to preserve the usage of aboriginal languages through computers and specifically, the Gnu/Linux operating system in this case. We hope any translations contributed via the Ubuntu project will eventually make it "upstream" to other distributions and even free, open source software in other platforms like Windows.
