We are working to bring some new tabs in the GlotPress right sidebar, so we think it is interesting to convert translate.wordpress.org to full width. Below, you can see some screenshot from the new draft design.

These screenshots were taken in a screen with a 1920×1080 resolution. You can see the PR here.

    •  The Training Team’s Content Localization Foundations project has kicked off, and they’re currently at the stage of looking for folks to volunteer as Locale Ambassadors. Spanish, Japanese, German, French, and Italian are the five starting languages they are searching for Locale Ambassadors in (This was based on the most used languages in the WordPress.org stats page). Of course, these five are meant to be a starting point and not a decisive list, so we are happy if volunteers who speak other languages are interested as well. Please feel free to reach out to @piyopiyofox directly if you are interested in learning more. They are currently in the recruiting phase and next steps will be shared with volunteers in the project thread from early December.
