[Localization] Aymara & Quechua Poodle

[Jim Gettys]

Until Pootle grows proper support for displaying multiple languages for
translators, (I believe Sayamindu has made this request of Pootle; and
we encourage any motivated web hacker to help the Pootle project to add
this support) your best bet is likely to be to download the .pot files
for Spanish and work with them in a text editor, and reupload the
result.
                               Best regards,
                                    - Jim
