+Hi Margot, welcome aboard!
+
+I, and I imagine most of the people on this list, would be more than happy
+to help you get started and assist where needed. In my experience the
+whole translation process seems more like a black art than that it really
+is. Once you get going, and the pointers Oliver has given should go a
+long way towards that, you'll find it isn't that complex at all when you
+have your first translations done. Anything that is unclear, feel free to
+ask on this list or in our IRC channel on freenode, #mageia-i18n . I'm
+also willing to answer, to the best of my abilities, any questions you
+might have that you send directly to me.
+
+While I'd hate to state the obvious, know that your task isn't the hardest
+as the source language for all the files is already English. For most of
+the entries you can just copy and paste from the source text to the
+translated text and just take out any Americanisms as you encounter them.
+
+Thanks and regards,
+
+Remco
