[Olpc-indonesia] OLPC Indonesia translation question

[Arief M Utama]

Hi Djuna,


Wow, hope the winds doesn't do more damages and everything's ok with you.

There are already some parts that's translated, but since it is not 
fully translated, so yeah, the full experience may not be satisfying in 
Bahasa.

One of many thing that I would do, but still haven't get to it yet, is 
to try setting up OLPC installation in my computer and see how well it 
is in Bahasa.

So for now, AFAIK, the best way to see the progress of the translation 
is from this page:

http://translate.sugarlabs.org/id/

Maybe someone in this list also have a better idea about this?

If you can get someone working on this full time, I think they should be 
able to finish within a month or two.

I could help setting things up and reviewing initial work, and once 
you're ready, I can pass the lang-admin to your team.

Let me know what do you think and how we can progress forward.


All the best.
