First, I propose that you contact the previous translator, Temuri Doghonad=
ze <temuri=2Edoghonadze@gmail=2Ecom>, to discuss this with him=2E


And second, do you need guidance on how to work on the translation?
You can work via Weblate (at <https://hosted=2Eweblate=2Eorg/projects/debi=
an-installer/>) or directly with git on our Salsa git repository (<https://=
salsa=2Edebian=2Eorg/installer-team/d-i>)=2E

Feel free to ask for help, if you have any questions=2E


Best regards
Holger
