Hi Niels,

you are warmly welcomed to bring back to life the Danish translated 
Xfce. It hasn't seen any movement since many years. Only Xfce 4.2 seems 
to benefit from a Danish translation 
http://i18n.xfce.org/stats/index.php?mode=4&lang=xfce_4_2/da.

This is sad but true. I updated this list some time ago and took out all 
the translators that did not send in updated versions of some packages 
for more than a year.

I will update the list in a short time but you can already add your name 
as a new Danish translator.

Xfce counts less lines, some example of it is the French translation 
page http://i18n.xfce.org/stats/index.php?mode=4&lang=trunk/fr, it has 
more 4800 lines translated, this is without the documentation po files.

You could start by reading the i18n.xfce.org website, it contains lots 
of useful information about the translation process and download the 
scripts to translate the 4.4 version of Xfce to be found on the 
svn_howto page 
http://i18n.xfce.org/wiki/svn_howto#svn_scripts_for_translating_.po_files.

You will need to use subversion for these scripts to work, some 
information about svn can also be found on the i18n.xfce.org website. If 
you have any further questions, please feel free to ask them on this 
mailing list.

I look forward to add the Danish translations in the Xfce svn tree.
Max.
