Let’s us all prepare for next version
As you may notice, the latest stable version of Kalkun (0.4 Toba) will be released really soon, so it’s the right time to update and adding new translation to Kalkun project.
So, what this translation for?
With this translation you can help people who don’t understand English or any other language than it’s native language. FYI, currently Kalkun available on 9 language, which is Bahasa, Czech, English, German, Italy, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish.
You can improve it and make it better.
How to make translation?
It’s really easy,
If you want to add new translation, grab the latest english translation source, and start replacing translation text there. Or if you want to modify existing translation, you can grab the latest translation source (depends on the translation you want to modify).
So, what are you waiting for? let’s translating
