[translate-announce] Translate.org.za honoured with multilingualism award

[Dwayne Bailey]

Hello Translate.org.za friends,

On Saturday 2 February, Translate.org.za was honoured with an award for
'Multilingualism and Nation Building: eBusiness Institution of the
Decade'.

The award was given by the Pan South African Language Board in
recognition of our work to ensure that every South African can use a
computer in their mother tongue.  This includes the invention of a
multilingual South African keyboard, spell checkers and translation of
OpenOffice.org (the first office suite in an official South African
language and still the only one available in all 11 official languages).

I'd like to thank all of you who have made this possible.  Our donors,
volunteers, well wishers and staff.  Without you this would not have
been possible.  Ngiyabonga kakhulu.
