I would like to point out that we need to change the English language name for the language as "Dhivehi" as its spelled as Dhivehi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhivehi) While I know that the ISO 639 registration authority[1] isn't always right, we've been rather strict in the past about using the registration authority's English spelling of languages. So I think the right course of action is for you to first get in contact with the registration authority regarding the spelling in this case, and ask for the spelling to be changed, or alternatively, ask for the alternative spelling to be added in addition to the other one. Other language groups have done this in the past and succeeded, so it shouldn't be impossible. When the registration authority has issued an update with the other spelling, then please let us know so that we can change the GNOME listings.

If you need any more information please let me know. You can cc the corresponding emails to Sofwathullah as well. Thank you. Ok, thanks for clarifying! Support for Divehi [dv] is most welcome in GNOME. I've added Sofwatullah's name and e-mail address to the teams page at http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gtp/teams.html now. I have also added a Divehi [dv] component at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=l10n Please verify that both these listings are correct. I used the "Divehi" spelling of the English language name, as that is what the ISO 639 registration authority seems to be using (http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/langcodes.html). Please ask around on this mailing list or at the IRC channel #i18n on irc.gnome.org if you need help getting started.

Hi Christian, Actually we're the same usergroup. It was a coincidence. Anyhow the coordinator for the language dv-MV will be Sofwathullah Mohamed. If you need any more information please let me know. You can cc the corresponding emails to Sofwathullah as well. Thank you.

Ok, now we have a problem. As you can see on the referenced links[1], a few days before you, Inash Zubair also requested to be the coordinator of a new Divehi [dv] translation team in the GNOME Translation Project. We obviously cannot have two seperate teams nor two different coordinators. Thus I'd like you two to discuss with each other and agree on what to do, and then please let us know (on the gnome-i18n mailing list) the details of the Divehi team to be started, and who should be the coordinator for it. I'd like you to both confirm that decision on the list. In case you cannot agree on a common team and who should be the coordinator for it, please let us know anyway, so that we can pick a coordinator. In any case, I'd like people volunteering to be coordinators to get an account on http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ , so that we can have a dv component be set up in Bugzilla like for the other teams[2].
