Description
I propose to create a Hebrew localized version of the entire Open Mainframe Project COBOL Programming Course.
This localization effort would involve:
-
Translation of all markdown files, explanatory text, and documentation from English into high-quality, professional Hebrew.
-
Verification of code snippets and technical terminology to ensure consistency and correctness within the Hebrew context.
-
Establishment of a process for maintaining the Hebrew translation, including updates to reflect changes in the original English course.
I would like to be assigned as the primary translator and contributor for this project. As a professional COBOL engineer based in Israel, I have the necessary technical expertise, native fluency in Hebrew, and a strong interest in contributing to open-source initiatives through the Maakaf community.
Problems
It is related to an accessibility and reach problem.
Additional Context
I am Uriel Ofir, a COBOL Software Engineer at Mizrahi Bank. I am also the founder and manager of the Maakaf open-source community. This role demonstrates my commitment to open-source contributions and community building.
I have the necessary domain expertise (COBOL, Mainframe) and language proficiency (Native Hebrew speaker) to ensure a high-quality, technically accurate translation. I am ready to start immediately upon approval and assignment.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start by inventorying the course's markdown files and comparing the English content that would need translation. Verify the course's code snippets and technical terminology during translation. Done means the course content is available in professional Hebrew and a process exists to keep it aligned with future English updates.
