Dear all,

We’re happy to announce the release of GlobaLeaks 2.60.65 [1] with major
changes.

Focus of this release has been on the internationalization of the
platform, tons of bug-fixes and architectural refactoring to accommodate
upcoming JS end-to-end encryption support.

All source texts has been revised, various translation has been
completed and new translation has been added so that the platform now
includes support for the following new languages: Albanian, Bosnian,
Bulgarian, Kurdish, Persian, Russian, Slovenian, Welsh.

We would like to thank all the volunteers that contributed to this
release and SecondMuse and the Localization Lab [2] that hosted a
translation sprint inside the Circumvention Tech Festival in Valencia [3].
