[Translators-l] [Fundraiser 2008] Translations begin!

[Luigi Assom]

Hello eveybody,

If out of topic I will forward this message with a new one.

I am looking for people who can help and contribute to translate in their
native languages
this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Gg4u


It is a preliminary test for feedback of a potential project for delivering
content in local languages for rural development.
The priority languages are the ones spoken in Africa, Caribbean and Pacific
countries (79 countries ACP).

Could you help?/ Know someone who could help?
I can give you more detail on request, if you wish.

Thank you very much,
Luigi Assom
