I see no problem with that - the same was in GNU Pascal project.

Leader to myself, yeah ;-) ... No, it's a joke - I may include some
friends of my brother into translation effort at least as persons to
consult to if not to do hard work.

Joke aside, I don't think that I fit the requirements to be a Team Leader,
I'd just like to see things done. Frankly, I'm not even a Croat by
nationality, only my mom was ;-) ...

So, that's the procedure ... I hoped it was simpler, seeing German po
files from texinfo distribution ... But, I guess international work has to
be coordinated somehow ... I'll comply to rules, off course.

BTW, I see you're from Israel - there's a joke:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Two Isrealis were just blown up by the crazy Palestinian suicide
attack. They chated with their ancestors rather happy before the pearly
gates after having found that they will enter into Abraham's place just if
they forgive the poor mislead Palestinian.

"However, Palestinian was not looking happy at all, but angry instead. Two
Israelis were puzzled, for he was forgiven also, and he could enter
Paradise.

"'What was the problem - we've just heard you'll get your 70 virgins and
live happy in Paradise because you've shown great faith?", an Israeli
politely asked ...

"'Well ... That is the problem: the only virgins available are 70
65-70 year old Catholic nuns ....'"

I doubt this was a good idea, but I just had to teel you :-P

Have a nice and peacefull day (and may Lord watch you),
Mirsad
