Yes i've noticed this a few weeks ago when finding out where upstream translations for Xubuntu were for the website and this Arabic translations google doc. https://xubuntu.org/contribute/documentation/#translation https://docs.google.com/document/d/1fj86gTZhPotY0NWpvf1tN0hr4RauM5JtAMoaPnj_sqk/edit# This there any wiki/guide that mentions which ones should and shouldn't be translated in Launchpad? > What I'm trying to say here is important to understand for everyone who > wants to contribute to "Ubuntu translation".

Yep I have no plans to create another translation documentation, only to create a simple guide of points to give the basics and point people to more info. > That's bad. I also noticed that your message with a CC to > [email protected] didn't make it to > that list even if I approved it. I wonder how you are able to reply to my first email to the launchpad ML if it didn't reaching the list. I know I purposely made sure that you were CCed in my last reply, as I noticed in the ML archive that my first email never arrived. Thanks for the help. Regards, Yousuf
