Hello, I wanted to make an observation associated with the challenge of user experience, usability testing, and localization that you identify in the “Flexibility of OSS” section of your post. I think that this relates to Jean-Claude's recent posting, which included a project outline for a FOSS stack to support educational organizations, one of the key requirements identified was the ability to customize/localize across countries and cultures to meet local needs. It seems to meet that the balancing of usability and localization is one of the key challenges while trying to use FOSS to reduced some barriers to online learning globally. This issue seems to be one of the primary goals of the Fluid Project.
Fluid Will:
Help address the diverse needs represented within education, including needs related to ability,language, culture, discipline and institutional conventions
Do you have a strategy to achieve this objective and have you had much participation from potentialstakeholders (universities, foundations, governments, etc.) in developing regions or NGOs that work indeveloping regions?
Cheers, Ken
