Hi,
I have translated messages/websites-timeline-kde-org/timeline-kde-org.po
to Euskara/Basque (eu). Should I do anything for it to be published?
By the way, is this mailing list the place to ask for website related issues?
Thanks,
Iñigo»
:-D 8-D
Albert, you know how much I appreciate you.
Cheers,
Iñigo
