Translators - please send me an merged and updated po file as per my original email. So far I only have Spanish and Swedish. For future releases, what we'll have to do (subject to any better ideas) is to start from the upstream po file, import that into Rosetta and replace these directly with the complete po files exported from Rosetta. Any updates to the upstream translations that happen during the process should be manually uploaded into Rosetta, which will merge the relevant strings (I hope). -- Matthew East http://www.mdke.org gnupg pub 1024D/0E6B06FF -- ubuntu-translators mailing list ubuntu-translators@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-translators
