I'm just in no way an evangelist and even don't want to be. I'm interested only in translation mostly because I like it: both translation as a process and the fact my working space is in my language. Proselyting is not for me but there are some people who do want it - there is already even the web site <a href="http://mageia.planet.ee">http://mageia.planet.ee</a> (for now just redirect to <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="http://www.mageia.org/et/">http://www.mageia.org/et/</a>) maintainer of which has some plans for content special for Estonians (some visual installation guide, maybe some packages or scripts for further localisation (e.g. for Estonian electronic ID)) - essentially probably something like he did for Mandriva (<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><a href="http://mandriva.planet.ee/">http://mandriva.planet.ee/</a>). Though, I might ask once more is there somebody who'd be interested in translating Mageia blog...<div> +<br></div><div>Marek Laane</div><div>Estonian translator</div><div><br></div> |
