I noticed the activity on Bugzilla regarding your translation. Much of
what gets entered into Bugzilla is developer notes: for instance, "Marc
if you could slide this into 2.6" accompanied a change in assignment to
Marc ("uwog"), who handles translations and releases. At this point
you've done all you can - next time that Marc goes through and applies
updated translations, he'll see yours and add it.

There are scripts in the AbiWord source tree to turn a .po file into a
.strings file, which is what AbiWord uses. (You'll find lots of
.strings files in your AbiWord install directory.) If you find and run
this script on your new translation, you can add it to an existing
version of AbiWord without recompiling. Sorry, but I don't have time at
the moment to find out which one it is.

If you need more help moment-to-moment, I recommend checking out the
AbiWord IRC chat - irc.gnome.org, channel #abiword.

Thanks for contributing!
