And the annoyance by a partial translation is a myth. Maybe it is rare to have partial translations for the major languages that have strong teams, but for the rest it is something natural. > But if some people want the half translation, they can download the > po file from svn.

I think this list is mostly read by developers and packagers, which excludes the target user base which should be polled. > You think we do, we think we help users to have a nicer Gajim. Yes, I am sure that this decision was made with good intentions. I don't dispute that. But there's a reason why nearly nobody does this. If it was a good thing, people would have figured that out long time ago. > I heard your complaint. Is it shared? Ask on gnome-i18n (for example) where people actually use localized environments and actively participate in translations. The opinion of a developer who doesn't use a localized MUA (which has a complete and excellent French translation, I'm told) is biased by definition. _______________________________________________ Gajim-devel mailing list Gajim-devel@gajim.org http://lists.gajim.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/gajim-devel
