[OSGeo-Greek] Language issues on web site

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Καλημέρα σε όλους.

Είναι η δεύτερη φορά που λαμβάνω ένα τέτοιο e-mail και γι αυτό το προωθώ 
εδώ.

Προφανώς η διαδικασία μετάφρασης προκαλεί προβλήματα στο κεντρικό site 
επειδή
α) είτε κάτι δεν δουλεύει σωστά στο drupal (ίσως τα Ελληνικά δεν 
εγκαταστάθηκαν σωστά)
β) είτε επειδή δεν έχουμε αντιληφθεί πλήρως το πως πρέπει να εργαζόμαστε 
( το οποίο ομολογουμένως δεν είναι τόσο σαφές και εύκολο)

Προτείνω να παγώσουμε τη διαδικασία μέχρι να λυθεί το θέμα ή να ορίσουμε 
1-2 άτομα που να κάνουν τις αλλαγές και οι υπόλοιποι να ανεβάζουν τα 
κείμενά τους σε κάποιο άλλο εργαλείο.
