-1 here.
I'm agree with Miguel statement
While making all french localization for Zeta alone (from RC2 to r1.2).
If i had wait for another french dude to split the job, it still wouldn't have
been done…
Lately, i translate a lot for twitter.com (translator level 7) and their tool
was pretty nice! (Haikuzone is not that far from here btw)
I really don't see why one pretty motivated ressource can't start to localize
using HaikuZone… from my experience running beosfrance.com for 5 years now, i
can tell you that find a dude that wouldn't stop to give any news 3 weeks after
involving in translation/writing article is pretty hard.
Miguel is motivate and want to help ? Way to go son !
So why not giving him the tools to start working … anyway, if he leaves, a part
of the job will already be done for the next candidate. That wouldn't be true
with 200K community members where a bit of control is needed but for now, to
me, any local or personal initiative should be welcome ! Elsewhere, you will
just encourage forks and aside initiatives.
