I'm not very busy, but as I told before, I've not had access to a
computer I can trust with GNOME SVN keys for a while. That's going to
change shortly, of course, and I've said that before too.

Since next major release of GNOME is in September, we still have a lot of time.

I wish to confirm that. Unreviewed translations are as bad as
unreviewed code. And low quality translations are worse than
incomplete translations or no translation at all.

In many different ways, but all of them require patience, commitment,
and the will to work with others.

Definitely. I wish to ask that again from others: If a translation
team exists, please do not submit translations from new volunteers.
They should go through the older teams.
