Dear Ain Vagula.

Thank you for your presentation.

For translation you can find information about Xfce at
http://i18n.xfce.org/.

Please find information here how to work with svn in Xfce at
http://i18n.xfce.org/wiki/svn_howto. Please download script xdt-i18n
and have in in your $PATH.

For 4.6 you need to translate trunk and goodies. You'll create your
local copy with the commands '|xdt-i18n init xfce/trunk' and
'||xdt-i18n init goodies/trunk||'.|

To obtain rights to commit to svn you'll find how to at
http://i18n.xfce.org/wiki/translator_account. But it might be a god
idea to contact the present committer for Estonian
Peeter.Vois at proekspert.ee
<mailto:%26%23x50%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x74%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x72%3B%26%23x2e%3B%26%23x56%3B%26%23x6f%3B%26%23x69%3B%26%23x73%3B%26%23x40%3B%26%23x70%3B%26%23x72%3B%26%23x6f%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x6b%3B%26%23x73%3B%26%23x70%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x72%3B%26%23x74%3B%26%23x2e%3B%26%23x65%3B%26%23x65%3B>.
Normally only one committer is allowed per country.

If you have any issues please do not hesitate to ask for help either
on this mailing list or IRC #xfce on irc.freenode.net.

Best regards

Per Kongstad
