We recently improved our English-language self-certification for both of the OpenChain ISO standards: https://openchainproject.org/news/2025/08/12/updates-to-openchain-self-certification
Now it is time to think about how we can help even more organizations benefit from our standards and a more trusted supply chain. To that end, we are launching a request for community collaboration around translations in:
- German
- Japanese
- Korean
- Simplified Chinese
- Traditional Chinese
To kick-start the process there are (clearly marked) draft machine translations on GitHub. Hopefully this will help make it easier for people to jump in and complete the work with error correction or refinement.
