I do not know enough about Launchpad to give a useful opinion on the total issue of distributing translations, but I do want to stress that the decisions about what to put in and what to leave out applied just to this 0.6 release, and were (I understood) intended only to defer the decision about what languages *will* ship in more mature Habari versions. The languages that are in 0.6 don't reflect any plan to exclude any languages long-term. It was motived by release logistics. Some discussion of what criteria might establish a language for inclusion in core, what might make it a candidate for -extras, and how to distribute translations, has occured in passing in preparation for the 0.6 release. It should be completed and decided by the community as Habari evolves toward 1.0. -Josh --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/habari-dev -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
