A native greek contributor has started a translation for Limewire. I'd like to see here feedbacks about this translation (for now it can't be released as it covers only 37% of the non-optional part of the file).

If our translator continues his work, may be Greek will be in the next release. So if you can read greek, I suggest you test it in your developement version...

Thanks to Damianos Aronidis, the Greek translation is now nearly ready (66% complete) for the next release 4.4.6 or 4.6.x, or next beta 4.5.x, with the most important parts of the interface already translated.

He is still working on the translation. But feedback on his translation are welcome to help him.

(Yes I know that there are a few occurences of Latin letters within Greek words, but this can be corrected later, and it should not affect the way Greek words are rendered. So let's not confuse him for now with this minor issue...)

Also, someone has just offered to join us to work on the Malay translation. Come on. There are still work to do in other languages, including the already released ones for which a few missing resources would be welcome.

See my signature.

(Note: I know that the translate page is broken for now; I have already alerted the Limewire team about this issue, it should be corrected soon, I hope).

Get Murasame to check it! (The greek translation)

So you already have somebody for Malay!

How about Kme ... no they probably don't even have computers over there! hahaha

Khmers in Cambodia have computers there. It's just that they don't have solid Internet connections, or use Internet mostly in Cybercafés. This effectively limits their usage of Gnutella.
But there's a wide community of khmers abroad, notably in China, Thailand, Europe, Australia, ...

The only thing is that the Khmer language was, until recently only supported on computers with Latin transcriptions. There's still no 8-bit standard for the script, but Khmer is now encoded in Unicode (and Windows XP SP2 and 2003 Server now support the Khmer script). The limiting factor for it is the absence of free fonts for at least the basic script.

Same remark about Vietnam whose Internet development is not so ridiculous (Vietname is now widely open to tourism...) Modern Vietnamese uses the Latin script, but it is still considered "complex" because their use of the script includes letters with two accents. There's a national VISCI standard for 8-bit processing (but it cannot conform to ISO-8859 requirements, as it uses some C0 and C1 control codes to encode some letter compositions). But there's a supported Windows codepage 1258 which does work using only the C1 control positions (like in other Windows ANSI codepages), at the price of composed sequences with combining diacritics. Windows Vietnamese comes with a Vietnamese keyboard, and the necessary fonts are the same as in the other Latin distributions: Arial, Times New Roman, Courier...

I know that some Khmers/Cambodians leaving in Vietnam commonly use the Vietnamese Latin letters. So why not a Cambodian (Latin) translation if Cambodian (Khmer) is too complicate to have for now, and the current Unicode encoding is used only by academic Khmer searchers or librarians that can have the necessary toolkit on their computer?

Yes there is a large number of Cambodians living in south-western VietNam. And even when I was there 6 years back there were net cafes in the major cities (I think they were net cafe's.) I've heard mixed reports of their (VietNam's) net reliability also. Let alone other issues like unreliable power supplies. I also believe a high % of comp's over there are 2nd hand ones sold by other countries. That was true some years ago, I don't know about now.
