Agile Development Practices for Translation and Localization

Agile development practices are now a reality not just in the software arena, but also in technical publications. Naturally, translation and localization must also be able to support an agile process. This presentation will address the impact of upstream agile processes on translation and localization, and will explore best practices in localization to support agile. Scott Bass, Production Manager at MadTranslations, and Jose Sermeno, Product Evangelist at MadCap Software, will present on how to sprint in 5, 10, 15 or more languages.
