I'm sorry, but even if I really would like to, I wouldn't be able to keep each contributor up to date, so sorry if I said that, I was meaning when it will be available. We discussed it at the ESC meeting, so the state is in the minutes published on the QA, dev and projects lists. > >> >> Furthermore, if a language version was neglected once, it should be in >> the project's interest to compensate it by keeping its translators >> informed, not stonewall them. >> >> I thought I answered your questions, if you find it's too long, just >> ping me again and I'd give you explanations (thanks Adolfo for providing >> them). > > You gave me a vague statement that "Christian will provide the lang > pack", so first I waited, then sent him two emails, and got no answer.

This is not because a language is spoken by millions that it gets more volunteers, for French, we are two translators and I was alone for years. So for localization, there is no small or large languages, we are all equals. > >> BTW did you give a try to Weblate, what's you feedback on it? > > I used Weblate before, so however you put it together, I'm fine wit it. Great, thanks for your feedback.
