[Olpc-indonesia] OLPC Indonesia translation question

[Djuna Ivereigh]

Dear Arief,

Thanks so much for your reply, and sorry for my own delay. Our power has 
been down for most of 2 days due to crazy winds! Ironic as I'm drafting 
a proposal re: electrification + OLPC   :)

Is it true, then, that no part of OLPC software is usable yet in Bahasa?

And would you estimate that, given funding, 1 full-time translator could 
complete the job in 3 months? Or 3 translators in 1 month?

And would this cover the software set listed at 
http://one.laptop.org/about/software ?  Any more or any less?

Thanks so much!

Best,
Djuna
