Hello tranlsators,
I have a little problem configuring kbabel to use the right encoding for
my language (Romanian / ISO-8859-2 ) b/c there is no iso-8859-2 option
in kbabel... I had this setting in woody, but I have installed sarge
recently and I can reproduce that setting.
What do I have to in
I saw that the italian (and other ones) team translated "mac-fr3" as
"French (Mac, alternative), but OTOH the french team translated it as "
Mac (French, type 3)"...
1 - Wouldn't it be a good ideea to have an unified translation?
2 - Does everybody (Bob-user) know about type 3 / alternative layo
I just had a great ideea about how (I think) we can solve the
maintainer/translator communication problem. I didn't followed the whole
thread, but I don't want to froget this...

tool, not svn, let's call it svn-po) that is
