Language Onboarding and Development/Annual Planning

Here we capture planned key areas for Language Onboarding and Development for every fiscal year. The plan is intended to align with the Foundation's Annual plan, Product & Technology objectives, input from the community members and foundation staff members. The plan helps us to focus on certain initiatives every fiscal year and measure its impact through the year.
