OK, I thought in case you need files that you cannot download.

You don't need the package itself. At least not now. You need a file which 
will be called packagename.pot. You can open this file in KBabel, after 
setting it up the way I describe in that email. The you just translate and 
save. Each time after you have translated strings, you can send the file to 
me and I will commit it to CVS, which is a version control software for 
source code.

That should actually be all. You don't need to translate man pages. You will 
be translating the strings for the application GUI itself. I.e. everything 
you see on menues and the like.

I can send you the file that you need to translate later. For now please make 
sure to set up KBabel correctly. If you have questions and you are in Tehran, 
let us know and we can help you on location :)

Greetings,
Arash
