New language: Lao Wikipedia
Hi All,

I am Anousak Souphavanh, am the lead for Lao Open Source projects:
OpenOffice, KDE, and phpnuke. My team and I would like to participate in
translating Wikipedia to Lao language. Lao is language of Laos, a landlocked
country located in Southeast Asia. A language that spoken by at least 30
million people within Laos, northeastern Thailand, and southern China. I am
not certain whether there is a request to create Lao Wikipedia or not.
Anyhow, I would like to request to create Lao (lo) Wikipedia. Also, let me
know if I required to have an id/password or not in order submit files, cvs
that is.

Thanks in advance.

Anousak

The not used Wiki for Lao exist already;
http://lo.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

You can ask to become a sysop and bureaucrat for that wiki at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_permissions

So you can translate the site.
http://lo.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Special:Allmessages&ot=html

The wiki is using UTF-8.
