The idea is that the translator will choose a region (using an online tool) and get an extract of data that he subsequently uses for the examples and screenshots. This may mean that we are talking 'localisation / regionalisation' rather than translation per-se but will allow e.g. an american training course to be conducted with e.g a dataset from Yosemite or some other local place rather than e.g. Swellendam (although the latter is obviously a far superior choice :-)).</span></div>

decided how to approach that and how to use those hours in the most<br>effective way, but now that there are more people moving in this<br>direction, I think is a good time to start working, and this seems the<br>best topic to work on<br>
