Can anyone here give them a hand getting Welsh language support in the debian installer, please? It says the chances are low, but the 100-days projects shows that Welsh-language translators can do amazing things sometimes. See the email which follows: Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2008 07:23:17 +0200 From: Christian Perrier <[email protected]> To: [email protected], [email protected] Subject: 3 days left: 10 languages in danger in D-I (D-I string freeze status) Message-ID: <[email protected]> 3 days left before the end of the string freeze NEW for today: Slovenian completed for sublevels 1-3 Ukrainian completed for sublevels 1-3 Catalan back to full 100% Big progress for Macedonian Languages meeting the release criteria: 50 ------------------------------------------ Already activated and complete for level 1: 44 Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Czech, German, Dzongkha, Greek, Esperanto, Spanish, Basque, Finnish, French, Galician, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Croatian, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Georgian, Khmer, Korean, Lithuanian, Malayalam, Marathi, Norwegian Bokmål, Nepali, Dutch, Norwegian Nynorsk, Polish, Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Swedish, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, Vietnamese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese Already activated and complete for sublevels 1 and 2: 6 Belarusian, Irish, Kurdish, Punjabi, Slovenian, Ukrainian, Wolof Not yet activated languages complete for sublevels 1 and 2: 0 Languages failing to meet the release criteria: 23 -------------------------------------------------- Activated languages: 10 Amharic, Bengali, Bosnian, Danish, Estonian, Latvian, Macedonian, Northern Sami, Albanian, Tagalog Not yet activated languages: 13 Afrikaans, Welsh, Persian, Armenian, Icelandic, Kazakh, Kannada, Malagasy, Malay, Serbian, Telugu, Urdu, Xhosa (chances to get these in lenny are quite low) If your language is listed in "failing to meet the release criteria", please do not scream out. For many of these languages, only very few translated strings are missing and the needed update is very small. But, still, do your best for this to happen.
