Hi.
I checked out the latest sources in order to try a translation to =
Swedish. I quickly found out that this was to become a rather =
complicated task. Presentation texts are practically shattered all over =
the sources.
Is there currently any work going on in this area?
What can I do to help improving the situation?
Note that I have limited time to allocate in this matter (well, who =
doesn't :), but want to do my part if others are interested to make an =
effort as well. The Mailman software is a really good peice of software =
in concept and design, part from the localization aspects that is.
I also want to mention that I earlier made a try to localize Majordomo. =
Same problem. Since I'm a python fan, I was delighted to find out about =
Mailman. Anyway, localization is an important issue, IMHO.

Cheers,
Tomas
