Hello Andrej,
Thank you very much for your reaction. It will help when we have to make
a decision.

In Slovenian language team we translate something which could be
translated something like "overview board" (since it gives you
overview over everything on the system).
I think it's a good solution in our case, since "Dash" sounds too strange.
We tend to translate most english terms (in case they cannot be used
in Slovenian), but we have some exceptions, such as applet which we
don't translate (since we haven't figured out a short Slovenian
replacement yet).
regards
Andrej

On the Dutch forum we started a discussion about the translation
of the
word "Dash". There have been many reactions. I am wondering what other
translation teams think of this.
In short, there are two options:
1. do not translate it
2. find a new word for "Dash" that describes best what it is. Some
suggestions are: startmenu, dashboard (which is an accepted word in
Dutch), snelstartmenu (= quick start).
