That's okay, you have to start somewhere right? Please tell me your opensuse login names so i can give you access right for el.opensuse.org. Please get in contact with the wiki list and read through http://languages.opensuse.org/Help:Translation >>>> The reason i ask is that we have seen too many localized pages gone >>>> stale over the time with no possibility for us to put new people on the >>>> task.

To redirect it to the official site, the wiki? You should: 1. Translate www.opensuse.org to greek The source of the webpage is in SVN. You can check it out here: svn.berlios.de/svnroot/repos/opensuse/trunk/infrastructure/www.o.o/ simply copy the english directory (en) to the greek directory (el) cp -av en el and then translate the included html files. In the end you add an option to the file languages.html for greek. If you have done all that you can send the differences (svn diff) to [email protected] If you need any help with this don't hesitate to contact the opensuse web developers on the same mailinglist, they will help you! 2. After you have completed 1. you point opensuse.org.gr to www.opensuse.org/el Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.
