Speaking about myself where I belong to no groups : ) I explained my 
concerns, and I was surprised with the reaction and the way of replying
my emails where I had not start a fight : ) With the state we reached
of understanding each other and clearing the points I have no objection
on having the project assigned to Arabeyes.

For me I explained my concerns. Yet, for others I am not going to speak
on their behave, so as I said before, if no one else object, I myself
withdraw my objection, and have no problem contributing with Arabeyes
on the translation effort on any other efforts.

Hope this clear things.

Was nice to hear from you Osama .. 

Thanks
