The Linux operating system, OpenOffice package, the Mozilla Firefox internet browser and Mozilla Thunderbird e-mail client are among these software packages. The localization task was given to the experts from Belgrade University’s Faculty of Electrical Engineering, the Faculty of Organization Sciences and the Faculty of Mathematics, and the School of Electrical Engineering in Nish.

Currently, the two Linux versions – Ubuntu and Fedora are being localized whereas the first versions of these programs in Serbian will be available for use starting from March, 2008.

The public bid for localization of other important open-source software packages is announced for the beginning of 2009.
