I'd appreciate if one of the existing translators answered this question, since I'm not familiar with the workflow myself. (Fixing "s/color/colour" for the en_GB translation really doesn't count ;)) My personal suggestion would be to grab the gEDA code from git: http://www.geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:scm git clone git://git.gpleda.org/gaf.git Learn to build and install gEDA from source, then step into the various "po" directories "libgeda/po, gschem/po and (trivially) gattrib/po", and look at making the translations there in your checkout. Since we don't ship Arabic translations at the moment, you will need to "git add <path_to_file>" before they show up in "git diff" output.
