I have commited this translation. I did not commit the 3 or 4 other languages you also submitted because we have had previous translators for them. I am not prepared to squash the efforts of an existing volunteer just because you seem to be part of some sort of official organization, in my experience, organizations are no less likely to disappear (from our point of view) than indivdiuals. I have a high respect for the amount of work that goes into translating, and always require at very least a best effort at contacting a previous translator before accepting a translation from someone new. Some of our translations are maintained by groups or pairs of translators, the existing translator might appreciate the help, or might feel that it is best to let you take it over. Alternately, I've also been caught in the middle of disputes about what is the correct translation of something. In such cases my preference is to default with the existing volunteer. luke _______________________________________________ Translators mailing list [email protected] http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/translators
