Thanks.  As you know, the haitian community is spread all over the
world, so my sensors cannot really predict how fast volonteers may help.

But I'm preparing a webpage explaining everything about the Pootle, and
I expect to send it to the diaspora (in addition to people here) in the
middle of next week.  I hope the translation will be nearly done in less
than one month, letting me install recent builds in the 3rd and 4th
weeks of July.
