My username is *pintert3*.
With regards to the Help project, I don't know how long translating the
UI will take, probably a while, so I'm making no promises. But since I'm
part of a growing community of open source language support over here, I
think at one point we may have enough people helping out in the
translations. So if it doesn't cost much, then I'd say open the Help
Project too, but no promises in hitting them both in time for any
deadlines now.
Regards,
Phillip

Hello everyone,
I'm Phillip, and I wish to start a Luganda(Ganda) localization project.
Currently it appears it has never been started before, so I intend to
start it.
According to
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide,
these should be the requirements:
* ISO-639-1 --- *lg*
* ISO-639-2 --- *lug*
* Country code(ISO 3166-1) English --- *UG*
* Country code(ISO 3166-1) French --- *UGA*
* Country Alpha Code (ISO 3166-1) --- *800*
* Microsoft Locale ID --- *0x1000* (lg)
* Language name in English(according to ISO-639-2) --- *Ganda*
* Language uses Latin Script with an additional character, Ŋŋ (part of
latin extended-A)
Luganda is spoken majorly in Uganda, with no other known dialects and
therefore the two character ISO-639-1 code: *lg *will sufficiently
define it.
@Eike, could you let me know if it's ok on your side?
I will be the manager of the localization project, and I hope to gather
a team from a local open source community. My contact email is
*[email protected]*
Your language already exist on Weblate, so let me know your username
there and I'll create the corresponding roles for your language.
I guess you will first work on translating the UI, but do you want also
the Help project to be added?
Cheers
Sophie
