[Persian-lir] Farsi Transition crowd sourcing

Dear all,

First I would like to wish you all a blessed Ramadan and a happy Eid.

I have been following the emails and conversation on the list and I am very happy with the amount of engagement.

One of the topics we discussed during the IR member lunch in May was to attempt to set up a local open platform for Iranians to collaborate and crowd source to translate useful technical documents into Farsi.

Based on the discussion at the member lunch meeting, it was decided to take this up on the mailing list to decide the best domain name, platform  and hosting company that can reflect the entire Persian technical community.

Though it has not been officially announced it yet, the MENOG team has decided to go to Tehran for the upcoming meeting (MENOG 16) in November 2015.

It would be extremely useful and beneficial if we could manage to get some documents translated through community efforts to be present at the NOG meeting.

I look forward to hearing your suggestions and kickstarting this community driven initiative.

Regards
Hisham
