A partner, Taxi -- in NYC, is developing the widget, and any translations would be needed by noon Eastern Standard Time on Friday - so if anyone plans to translate in the .po file, i'd recommend getting them to Sayamindu by 11am EST, or taking the MS Word file that I will post directly to <a href="http://www.cftw.com/translate" target="_blank">www.cftw.com/translate</a> in MS Word and Open Office formats and replacing the english with the other language.<br>
<br>Please email me as well because I am helping Seth to coordinate. Don't wait for a reply though as I will be up all night and may not get to email until 10:30-11 am EST.<br><br>As I understand, German, Italian and Spanish are taken care of. And Taxi just emailed tonight and said no more than 7 languages will be needed total, but there's no way of knowing at this point so please feel free to translate however you like.<br>
<br>I will proceed to immediately opening the relevant word doc, converting to open office format, and uploading to <a href="http://www.cftw.com/translate" target="_blank">www.cftw.com/translate</a><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">

<br>
Recently Seth Woodworth posted a list of words/phrases which can be<br>
translated and used in the upcoming Give One Get One marketing<br>
campaign. I have added those strings to Pootle<br>
(<a href="https://dev.laptop.org/translate/projects/olpc/" target="_blank">https://dev.laptop.org/translate/projects/olpc/</a>). It would be awesome<br>
if you can translate as many of those strings as possible within the<br>
next few days (this is a bit urgent as we need the translations pretty<br>
soon). Please let me know (<a href="mailto:sayamindu@laptop.org" target="_blank">sayamindu@laptop.org</a>) if you face any<br>
issues with the translations/our Pootle server.<br>
<br>
A primer to our Pootle translation system is at<br>
