If we can download all files for a language that is ok. For upload you have to match the file with the database image, and having looked also in the documentation I find no hint of being able to that with a zip file. > > As I understand, Juergen will now take over and continue the discussion, > but rest assured that we will find the time during ApacheCon EU next week > to discuss this and get feedback from the people who haven't had time to > comment here. > I am in contact with Juergen, who have given me much valuable input (as many others on different subjects). I for sure hope that we can get all the discussion settled before I get too deep into the development, so thanks for reading and making it a theme on apacheCon. This development is not "piece of cake", so I will rather have the proposal discussed in length instead of having a new l10n mishap. > > Thanks, > Andrea. >
