Hello together,

I am sad to announce that I have to remove the languages "Faroese" [1] 
and "Estonian" [11] from the "Back In Time" project [2][3] in the coming 
weeks.

Despite my continuous efforts to attract translators in relevant 
communities, there has been no significant progress since I took over 
the translation subproject about 2 years ago. The translation progress 
for this languages remains stuck at ~30% (of 384 strings).

I'm member of the maintenance team of "Back In Time" a rsync-based 
backup software. No one gets payed. No company behind hit. Even the 
maintainers and developers are volunteers.

If one of you want to jump in, please let me know if and how you want to 
be mentioned in the credits as a translator. It is up to you if you want 
to use your real name, your email or something else. We do have an extra 
file [4] listing contributions to the translation. The content of that 
file will be used in the about dialog for example.

We also have the following languages to offer that might be relevant for 
your community:

     - Icelandic [5] (81%)
     - Danish [6] (57%)
     - Finnish [7] (74%)
     - Swedish [8] (53%)
     - Nynorsk [9] (72%)
     - Bokmål [10] (75%)

We appreciate your help. Don't hesitate to ask.

Christian Buhtz on behalf of the The Back In Time team
