Hello again Joni :)

As you can see, I've forwarded your message to the list. This is the best place to discuss these things, so new translators in the future can read about them. (When you click "Reply", check that the To: header contains "mailman-i18n", as some lists default to sender, and that can be confusing and inconvenient.)

If Pekka is no longer interested in translating Mailman, are you willing to be our Finnish Mailman Champion? Please say, so I can change the details in our wiki.

To start with, you need to read our Translation Howto:

http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/i18nhowto

This tells you how to get the Mailman files, and what to do with them.

Once you've read this, please feel free to ask any further questions here. :)
