We made some progress since I last reported on our matters.
* We have updated Japanese, Portuguese and Lithuanian translations.
* We have a 0.8.2 spanish package. This one needs to be tested : see Caminol10n
* We should publish a new packaged version of Camino-multilanguage 0.8.2 containing all those changes.
* We should add Korean to the list of languages we have/support.
* We are trying to update http://www.mozilla.org/projects/l10n/mlp_otherproj.html#camino
Camino is available in almost 14 languages. I would also like to be able to incorporate Croatian and Finnish to our languages, Croatian "only" needs to be tested by Croatian mac users, while for Finnish wee need some work to update the translation from 0.8.1 to 0.8.2 and then someone to review that work.
On my spare time I've been trying to get people in touch with people willing to translate Camino to Arabic, Hebrew, Turkish, Greek. I've had few contacts with turkish mozillian, but did not get the right contact, still hoping. Greeks told me Gecko did not render hellenic characters good enough for them to use Mozillian application, hence I think we can forget Greek. I did not get any answer from Arabic speakers so far, but got one from Isarel saying that right to left language support in OS X sucked and thus most Mac users in Israël where using and English version of the system.
I would love to add more languages to our project, I'm looking for languges such as Norwegian, Swedish, Russian. Send me a mail I you whish to help translating Camino to these languages.
I'll be attending Fosdem 2005, so if you want to discuss Camino translating, and other mozilla matters please join the meeting.
