Salam, Sorry for the very late reply. This is a great idea, and I've already had many requests from people who are interested in helping with this project (apologies for them again for late replies). I've updated the PO strings to the latest from Pavel's ftp and our CVS is now ready to rock'n'roll.
Just to organize things again, I will check my email again looking for those people who showed interest in this project, and coordinate with them to see how much time they are willing to contribute and create a plan accordingly. more later... - Ossama ----- Original Message ---- From: Khaled Hosny <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Documentation and Translation <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, October 3, 2006 10:44:31 PM Subject: OpenOffice, application of the month As a response to "Application of the month" [1] idea, I think OpenOffice is a good start. I've to reasons for this; 1)Having a fully Arabized free [2] office suite is some thing that we really need, for example here in Egypt most users are using Arabic versions of MS office although they are using English versions of the OS itself. 2) OpenOffice is 69% completed [3], and I think the most of the remaining 31% are fuzzy strings that need not-so-much effort to be completed. Now, if any one interested/has detailed info about the status, we can start organizing the work and try to finish it in November (as I think Chahibi is working on konversation as the application of the current month). ----- [1] http://lists.arabeyes.org/archives/doc/2006/September/msg00190.html [2] free as in freedom [3] http://www.arabeyes.org/misc/openoffice_status_bar.html -- Khaled Hosny Egyptian GNU/Linux user Member of Arabeyes translation team [www.arabeyes.org] My Blog: [khalid_hosny.manalaa.net] _______________________________________________ Doc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.arabeyes.org/mailman/listinfo/doc
