Hi Charles:
First of all, i have to explain who I am and where i am working:
I'm Frco. Javier Rial Rodríguez, and I work in an institutional project of
the galician government to promote and develop Open Source software. One of
our goals is the translation of the OpenOffice.org, so in that way
OpenOffice can be used in schools, local administration, universities,
etc...
Our site name is www.mancomun.org. In this site we have Galician versions of
OpenOffice from version 2.0.2 to 2.0.4. We have contacted months ago with
Ruben da Silva. We wanted that Ruben da Silva submitted the translation but
he didn't. He only put the files on the project gl.openoffice.org but never
submitted them to this list.
So it would be fantastic if we can be co-leader of the gl.openoffice.org..
we don't have any answer from Ruben da Silva since 21 December 2006, we
asked him to give us the date in which new strings will be frozen for next
version, and we didn't receive any answer... now we know that this date is
18 January,, we can't finish the translation on that date... but we will
finish it soon.
Minimum requirement is 80% of UI strings. You should upload your file
even when some work is undone exactly to this date. This gives you
opportunity, that your language will be used in many Linux
distributions, building OO.o packages from 'official' source.
Some questions:
-When will be uploaded the galician gsi file??? How can we know????
You mean, when Sun engineers will download it?
They will add a note about every operation they make to the issue, you
will write about availability your gsi file.
-will be the openoffice translated to galician in new versions of distros
like Debian, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc???? This is what we want, we want that all
distros can have the openoffice.org in galician,.... Do you understand me???
When your translation is merged into source, then yes. When someone
misses your language, you can ping this distribution oo.o maintainer.
