Hi,

I just finished off the Norwegian translation of Gnomebaker (a must-have 
program in Gnome), which was started by Eivind Mikkelsen. What happens 
when a translation is finished? I guess it will be a part of the next 
package, and the original author of the package will also be notified, I 
hope...?

Second, if there is a translation in the CVS of a package which hasn't 
found its way to Ubuntu. How do we report this so that it can be 
included. We don't want to be doing double work, do we?

Also, I suggested a couple of changes to Rosetta (before I signed up for 
this list) with regards to the Norwegian language. It is located in the 
Ubuntu forums - http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=16240. 
Currently there are some problems with this in Rosetta. I just noticed 
that Karianne Grønningsæter started a translation for GAIM (Bokmål 
Norwegian), while Eivind Mikkelsen is half done with it. These should 
definitely be merged, and my proposal in Ubuntuforums should be 
considered, so as to make sure this double-translation doesn't happen again.
