Hello Everyone:)
We are happy to announce that we will be reinstating the Language Representative Program ! As a first step, we would like to set up a database of points of contact for each language community. This group will consist of volunteers who can serve as the primary reference for any language-specific questions and concerns.
We understand that this role is voluntary, and we don’t want to overwhelm anyone with responsibilities, as we know you may have other commitments. For now, we’re simply looking for individuals interested in being part of this community and offering their expertise when possible.
If you’re interested in joining this effort and representing your language, please register here or email me the following information at gina@mozillafoundation.org:

Are you interested in attending monthly/bi-monthly community meetings?: (Yes / No / Maybe)
Experience or background in this language:
To start, we are planning a kickoff meeting at the end of September (specific date and time to be confirmed) to discuss various issues related to language communities, data quality, and how we can improve collaboration moving forward. This meeting will also provide an opportunity for representatives to connect, share ideas, and learn more about how we can collectively support language-specific efforts within the Mozilla Common Voice project.
We look forward to working together to improve the quality and representation of all languages in the Common Voice dataset!
Thank you for your continued support!
Thanks.
