Martin Benjamin presented on the achievements and lessons learned by the African Network for Localization (ANLoc). ANLoc works to localize information and communication technologies for African languages by developing locales, fonts, keyboards, terminologies, translation tools, and training localizers. Some of the key challenges included recruiting volunteers for locale development and managing the scope of projects.

Editor's Notes
- #4: 4 languages of Rwanda: English, French, Swahili, Kinyarwanda
- #5: Story about getting a business card made in Kigali. Software in English and French, conversation in Kinyarwanda and a bit of Swahili, cards took about an hour to design because the designer couldn’t read all the menus. National University of Rwanda has a haphazard collection of computers that use English or French, depending on who donated or purchased the equipment.
