I suggest to you that you share your questions on this list. Im am quite sure
that the problems do affect other language teams as well. We would be glad to
examine with you the terminological issues and find together a solution. Your
questions will help us all with no doubt.

As a matter of fact, I directed the translators to Sayamindu Dasgupta as the
Pootle administrator. I think they could contact Edward Cherlin, as the
cordinator for the haitian créole translation effort.

So far, since only one translator contacted me directly, I am not sure if my
appeal had positive effects or not.

Best regards

Samy
