@ Abdelmonam Kouka:
Welcome :)
The mechanisms will remain the same; Launchpad is not recommended, since (1)
it's not the source of all projects & (2) there are people who are not used to
it.
You mentioned that you have already participated before; this means that u
already know how it works, and that u have read the translation guide earlier.
Abdilraheem Kintouni is the one in charge now; once the files are ready, he
will upload them.
@ Everyone:
The school-free summer is coming [yippee!!], but for now, I still have 2 deal
with those exams :s. Exams suck!! :(

Subject: Re: [general] GNOME translations and more
Wa alaykom assalem,
I am ready to help in gnome translation, I worked for that before:
http://wiki.arabeyes.org/%D8%AC%D9%86%D9%88%D9%85#.D8.A7.D9.84.D9.81.D8.B1.D9.8A.D9.82
at that time (more than 2 years) I get .po files to translate from brother
Jihed Afifi, I translate them and than I send them to him to verify and upload
them, are you always using the same mechanism or you use now an online tool
like lauchpad translation tool (for ubuntu)?
