You'd need to work with individual upstream projects on that. I agree on all that, of course. Just want to clarify that when I refer a potential translator to one of Ubuntu's translators teams, I assume that the members of the team will explain how it works. For a big language as pt-br that ought to be a reasonable assumption... -- Gunnar Hjalmarsson https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
