Basically, I set you up with the English language files, and you send back translated versions of those same files. No coding knowledge is required. Translators would get their names in the credits, preserved for posterity forever and ever. > > Is anybody fluent in a foreign language interested in undertaking a language translation project? If so, let me know. You might also want to subscribe to #RookChatDev in RinkChat, if you are interested in corresponding with others working on it.
Hello!
I can do the French without much problem. The difference between canadian/european French is mostly in the accents, and some vocabulary that doesn't exactly apply to chatting.
We might have some... Designs problems, such as lines falling out and such, because some words are longer in French. IE, email is courriel.
But I can do it. My email is gadazouk@hotmail.com.
