Thai Linux Working Group (TLWG; Thai: ไทยลินุกซ์เวิร์กกิงกรุ๊ป) is a group of volunteers working on free and open-source software to support Thai language.[1][2] The organization was founded in September 1998 with NECTEC's support.

In 1999, TLWG created MATEL (Mandrake and Thai Extension Linux). This Linux distribution eventually got renamed to LinuxTLE.[3][4]

In 2006, source code created by TLWG has been moved to GitHub[5]

Projects

TLWG has created and continues to back several projects such as LinuxTLE, LibThai, SWATH, Fonts-TLWG. They also tweaked LaTeX to support Thai language.[1]
