Hello Christian,

Yes, I would like to volunteer, if the former coordinator has nothing to object.

Ok.  have already translated some pos, but I guess we should first wait to solve the coordination problem, right?

That would not be a problem, as I have been coordinating many projects and gnu gettext is pretty familiar for me ;)

I could start searching for other volunteers too, also try to do a little PR for Georgian GNOME, but again, we should wait for Sandro's reply.

Sure. If you look at Weekly Translation Status mail posted in this list, you will find ka (ka) 0.91% on number 72 (in Unsupported Languages section). And it should say "Georgian (ka)" instead of just "(ka)".

Also, there is tk directory in the same list, which I believe should say Tokelauan (tk). Actually people at Tokelau also speak Samoan and some dialect of New Zeland English, so I am not sure in which language the Gnome localization is done for tk.
