In the near-term, we will get those cities translated for Group 1 (English, Japanese, German, Chinese (simplified), Chinese (traditional), French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese (Brazilian), Korean)." I was thinking that it may make more sense that after English that the native tounges might be priority in the translations of Olsen data. So you would translate "Europe/Istanbul" into Turkish before Group 1 languages. Carl
