Re: I want to help arabize KDE

I too, point people at l10n.gnome.org for files.

Those statistics websites are clearer, more user friendly than a full
blown archaic cvs interface, and they offer the ability to see the
statistics along with direct links to files.

I personally prefer this over scaring the new translator with CVS and
its details. When they familiarise themselves enough, I propose
contributing directly to CVS.

In my experience, this has worked out pretty well, and that is more
important than an idealistic perfectionist method.
