Volunteering to create Pootle accounts
I expect an increased traffic of Pootle account requests (from non-committers) next week, when we will release version 4.0 and new volunteers will want to translate OpenOffice 4.0 into their mother tongue. Unless we are already covered for a timely creation of accounts, I volunteer to get administrator privileges in Pootle and to standardize the procedure for non-committers to ask for a Pootle account.

Unless we are already covered for a timely creation of accounts, I volunteer to get administrator privileges in Pootle and to standardize the procedure for non-committers to ask for a Pootle account. thanks for volunteering, please remember pootle is a infra service (as we wanted) and not a specific AOO service. I personnally welcome you as admin, and will ask in infra if anybody objects. You will get admin priviledges for the AOO projects, I just have to make a profile in pootle, should be in place during the weekend. rgds jan I. If we are already covered, or we have someone else wishing to take care of this, just say so, and I'll be happier! But we must avoid delays and standardize procedures, at least for the languages that are already in Pootle. I dont know what the state of the pootle files are, that is something jsc have done. I would recommend not to just add new languages, pootle is the least problem here. rgds jan I.
