| 33 | +LinuxCNC was initiated 25 years ago and evolved into a very <br> |
| 34 | +international project with contributions from all over the globe. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +With release 2.9 of LinuxCNC we also transitioned the <br> |
| 37 | +documentation to the use of the public crowd translation <br> |
| 38 | +services [Weblate] and invite all our users to contribute. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +The translations we expect to help attract practitioners <br> |
| 41 | +to the project and also helps educating enthusiasts of <br> |
| 42 | +all age groups on automated machining. |
