Thank you for reviewing the tests. I have configured the code to ignore the capitalisation tests for Kannada in future versions of Pootle. Pootle 1.2.1 should be out very soon. (The current software on the server will still complain about them until we deploy the new version.) The use of the single quotes look a bit strange to me - I was wondering if a Kannada user wouldn't be able to distinguish the English without the quotes anyway. Alternatively, you could just use things like 'jToolkit' or 'Python' without change (many languages do it that way). But for now, I'm packaging this translation as you provided it, and of course, we can continue to improve it in future versions. I'm not sure if things like the spacing errors are all intended, and the printf error is definitely a problem. (I just made the unit fuzzy.) I still not sure about the plural forms for Kannada. Most sources say Kannada has only one noun form (nplurals=1), but your translations contains two different forms for plural units. The header currently does not specify any information - I still wanted to get it confirmed. I'd like to enable the language in the installation of Pootle 1.2.1, but we need the proper plural information, and I'd like to know that the tests are all reviewed and the interface tested. Either way, it will be distributed with Pootle 1.2.1.

I think your use of the English words in brackets might perhaps cause some problems here and there. You might want to reconsider that. Pootle 1.2 is already released, but version 1.2.1 should be out quite soon. If you are able to review the quality checks, your translation could see the world quite soon, I think!

How should I start contributing to Pootle Kannada translations ? I am already an user of sourceforge.net, my nick names is 'shankar_gowda' and I have subscribed the list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards, Shankar // Hallo Shankar Welcome to the Pootle community. I just added Kannada to the list of languages on the server, and added the Pootle project for translation: http://pootle.locamotion.org/kn/pootle/ Are you familiar with the PO plural information used for Kannada? For now I didn't add anything - we can easily add this later. It just means that units with plural forms will be skipped for the moment. Feel free to register at the server, and start with the file called pootle.po - these messages are used the most in Pootle. If you have any problems where the visual styling of the user interface is not good for Kannada, I hope we can work on quickly improving the styling (font, text size, etc.).
