Hi all, Trying to make it easy to understand... If I get it correctly, you are saying there will not be any translate.chamilo.org fix or upgrade before the next version of C2 is ready and released, right? (which means for the next 3-4 months).
I don't want to do mental manipulation of any kind, so I will leave it at that and ask for an official return to DLTT (or CLTT) at our next association meeting.
