GNOME version	---

In the greek glossary for gnome, the translation of the word "server" is given
as "διακομιστής". This is an arbitrary translation which has been used
extensively by Microsoft. According to most bibliographic resources(*) and
university lectures I've attended, the standard term is "εξυπηρετητής" (not to
mention that in terms of meaning, the word "διακομιστής" is not, in my opinion
a goog match for "server").

I therefore propose that the word "διακομιστής" be replaced by "εξυπηρετητής",
as a more official and coherent translation choice.
