We have gathered the information presented in this work from different
sources: the public available sources as websites of the projects,
documentation, mailing lists for translators, and related literature showed in
the bibliography. 

For each libre software project analyzed, we have written down the
 following aspects: if there is information
about how to localize the project, the recommended tools and website (if any)
of localization, if there is a internationalization team and localization
teams, and other remarkable aspects.

For each libre software tool or web platform analyzed, we have annotated
our research script with the following aspects: the type of localization tool
(standalone software, plugin, web platform...), year of first release, original
project for which was developed (if any), number of
projects that use the tool (if it is stated in the main website of the tool),
well-known projects that use the tool, other remarkable aspects.


The information here has been gathered between January - June 2012 and reviewed
and completed on September 2012 and January 2013.
