Re: Starting the Afrikaans (af) Translation Team

Hi,

What we ask people that want to create/revive a team is to
translate kcoreaddons, kio and kxmlgui as close to 100% as possible and send
them to Albert ([email protected]) in private (no need to bother the rest
of the people in the mailing
list with those files).

There are some old Afrikaans files at
  https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf6/af/messages/kcoreaddons/
  https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf6/af/messages/kxmlgui/
  https://websvn.kde.org/trunk/l10n-kf6/af/messages/kio/
make sure they are up to date and correct.

There's no files for the rest so get the templates at
https://invent.kde.org/localization/l10n-templates/-/tree/master/trunk6/messages/kcoreaddons
https://invent.kde.org/localization/l10n-templates/-/tree/master/trunk6/messages/kxmlgui
https://invent.kde.org/localization/l10n-templates/-/tree/master/trunk6/messages/kio

So your first task to become "new team coordinator"
would be to get those files as close to 100% as possible and send
them to Albert.

Best Regards,
Johnny

If the language is completely unmaintained, I would like to officially volunteer to start the team and act as the coordinator.
