> Claroline is an opensource Learning Management System (LMS) based on the
> PHP/MySQL technologies.  It allows teachers or institutions to easily
> set websites for their online courses. So far, the project has known a
> good succes and the software is now used in more than 400 universities
> and institutions all over the world (see http://www.claroline.net). In a
> process of internationalisation, we have also had lots of contributions
> and the Claroline interface has been translated so far in more than 28
> languages.  However, we are still facing  some difficulties to maintain
> the Arab version, which is about 40% ready for now (as the software
> still evolved a lot since the last translations we received). I am in
> contact with an Egyptian student who already did 20% of those 40% but I
> thought he would appreciate some help.

> I am asking then if any of the people from this list is interested in
> contributing to the Arab translation of Claroline, as the software could
> be a great benefit to the arab speaking community.  It is about 1500
> sentences/words to translate where almost the half is done (could be
> done in only a day!). For technical reasons related to PHP server
> configuration, we can not use ".po" file  but we use a simple PHP
> (text) file where everyline is like:
>
> $langWordtoTranslate = "Word to translate";
>
> A file containing the job expected to do is attached to this mail.
>
> Anyone interested can contact me personnally or is welcome on our IRC
