First off, I put the translated file encoded in Shift_JIS, it seems (the previous post to this list). Really sorry.

I think many lurkers here in this mailing list can speak up and join to the transalation. And .. okay, I'll review them, too. If the patch mails won't come to this list, how can we measure their (translators') efforts? > If you'd rather do new translations, that will be fine, > too.

Thank you. I am very glad to work (?) with you (ALL). Sincerely, -- Tetsuya. ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) P.S. Personally, I do not like "task share list". This enforces people who have those responsibilities a lot, and at the same time discourages people who had no chance to raise their hands. (And make them not to raise their hands ... as a result, we lose *champion*ships, initiatives -- sad --) [PATCH], [PATCH] *nag* *nag* patching style would be more desirable and conform to the sublime *A PATCHY* philosophy :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
