Hello everybody!<br><br>I read the information you sent me, Sayamindu, thanks!<br><br>Now the question is if is possible be able to write dialect's characters from the keyboard I don't know maybe with a special configuration and using sticker under each keyboard key.

</div>Nope - <a href="mailto:localization@lists.laptop.org">localization@lists.laptop.org</a> is the only one.<br>
<br>
There are two main steps to get a new language in Sugar<br>
<br>
* The first is to gather the locale data for the language, which would<br>
take care of region and language specific information, such as name of<br>
months, weekdays, currency symbol, etc etc I can help a native speaker<br>
of this language (or anyone who is sufficiently comfortable with the<br>
language) to turn the locale data into something usable in Sugar<br>
* The second step is to translate as much of the Sugar interface as<br>
possible - <a href="http://people.sugarlabs.org/sayamindu/pootleforxo2_5.pdf" target="_blank">http://people.sugarlabs.org/sayamindu/pootleforxo2_5.pdf</a> is<br>
a primer on how to do that.<br>
<br>
Of course, both the locale data gathering and translation can proceed<br>
simultaneously.<br>
<br>
Let me know if there is anything else that you need to know.<br>
Warm regards,<br>
Sayamindu<br>
