I've got to give them both a test, and if I don't like them, I'll write my own tools. :-) > I remember Roozbeh was preparing a guide for Persian GNOME > translators.

I personally have a low opinion about most of those "translated" words that the Persian Academy has assigned (I'll *never* call computers "Raayaaneh"!) but some of them sound meaningful, and anyway I'm not here to enforce my personal preferences, but to help! > Roozbeh is a bit busier than before these days.

Fine - although I'd prefer to start right away, since the occasions in which I have spare time are pretty scarce, and I'd like to use them well. > Since you are in Iran now, you may also want to join gnome-ir-list on > http://lists.gnome.org/ and help starting GNOME enthusiasm in Iran; > this great desktop has been left in cold there... I did. Hmm, the list doesn't seem to want to attract many people, does it? I had to type the URL by hand, and if it were not because of my personal experience with Mailman, I would have never found its subscription page! Maybe you'd like to make the list more visible... ------------- Ehsan Akhgari Farda Technology (http://www.farda-tech.com/) List Owner: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] [ WWW: http://www.beginthread.com/Ehsan ] _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
