</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Hi,
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; these days Damien contacted me about the bootloader translation.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; The problem is, we do have quite some languages, that don't have i18n
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; teams in Mageia.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; So there are quite some languages where the bootloader still contains
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; strings about Mandriva.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Now there are two solutions.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Either we do find translators of those languages, who fix those
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; translations (and while they are on it, join i18n and fix/complete all
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; other translations as well :D)
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; or we just delete those translated strings. People in those languages
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; will then see English strings instead but at least no Mandriva strings
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; any more.
</I>&gt;<i> A third option could be that some enthusiastic documenters/translators
</I>&gt;<i> just change Mandriva to Mageia in all the places where the English has
</I>&gt;<i> Mageia.  (Where translators for the language in question haven't responded.)
</I>
It's maybe doable for most languages but it can hardly be automated. And when 
coming down to non-latin alphabets it will become hell for those poor souls 
having to do it.

+the enthusiastic translators (doc team has nothing to do with it) have their 
own work to do...
