During my recent trip to Tokyo, I had the pleasure to meet with one of Talend’s biggest fan in Japan. Kensuke Saeki, pictured here (middle) with Vincent and myself, is an avid user of Talend Open Studio, and an important contributor to Talend Babili, our community translation application.  Saeki-san is working to make the user interface of Talend Open Studio in Japanese.  Check out the progress of the translation, it’s almost at 20%.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank again all the contributors to our open source projects.  Some of them are well known within the community, and some have less visibility.  But please be assured that the R&D team at Talend is well aware of all the individual contributions, and we are all very grateful for these.  Thanks to your posts in the Forum, your bug reports and feature requests in the Bugtracker, your components published in the Exchange, your best practices posted in the Wiki, your translations in Babili, the projects are moving at a fast pace and maintains their innovative edge.

Thanks to Saeki-san, and to all our other contributors!
