[Localization] Urgently needed translation for 'Give one, Get one' campaign

[Seth Woodworth]

Actually, I rethought this.  I don't *need* this to be in Pootle.  If I
could get translators to just edit this document and send it back to me?
That would more than satisfy.

Attached above is the .rtf file that I need translated.  If people could
just replace the english word with the translated word right in the document
I can send these back to Taxi.

I also forgot to mention what languages we think are a priority for this (in
no particular order):

 Spanish
 Portuguese
 Arabic, Dari, or Pashto
 French
 Mongolian

Beyond that, any language that uses a non roman character set would be
really special.


Thanks for your help guys.  Sorry about the fire drill, but this is really
going to help the marketing for this year's Give One Get One.  G1g1 is
really important is funding the laptop distribution in Several countries.
Please help make this year's program even more successful so we can give out
even more machines.
