Re: About translations

I'm very disappointed too.
I'm a long time Mandriva (Mandrake) translator and this last release cycle =
is=20
the most bizar I have known.

Sent two emails to the mailing list on june 30, no reply. Sent another emai=
l=20
on July 28 (subject: Waiting) and had reply asking for more info. I sent it=
=20
but I'm still waiting.

I think Transifex is a wonderful tool but in my case is causing more troubl=
es=20
than solutions, I could had worked better this time only with svn but as th=
ey=20
are not synchronised I was afraid of simply wasting my time.

It is a pity, I wanted to contribute but I haven't been able to.=09
