I wonder what would be the smartest way of building on (and feeding back into) the existing Arabic translation work. I guess the simplest approach would be just to make a copy (fork) of Arabic on the translation server and change the months. But given the bulk of the similarity one feels there must be a better way. eg. to focus solely on the Arabic po and have a small patch script to generate the Egyptian version?
