I enquiried into using that pootle installation, but was told i needs someone from CYI to syn languages.
Can someone create some languages for me on that pootle server? Te Reo Māori and Lolcat the purpose of the lolcat one (as in my earlier post) is as a language for developers to use from time to time to test that their code change didn't break translations.. It alerts devs to the fact that their patch means every translator has to add a new string for every languges.
