l10n-[SHORT_LANG_CODE] as l10n-tr should be enough I guess... with some
exceptions it should be satisfactory; the exception which came to my
mind was about the Chinese translation teams, where a finder separation
would be a quite good idea I guess :-) And also for the Spanish
"versions" out there of course.

Oh, that's really great, thanks very much

Would you do this for our Turkish team ("l10n-tr" named I'd say) for
both me (kabalak@gtranslator.org) and Görkem (gorkem@gelecek.com.tr)?
We're both registered users of b.g.o so there shan't be any problems
with this...

Also a good idea... well, I'd vote for this -- [X] -- voted :-)
gnome-turk@gnome.org would be the right thing to use for our Turkish
translation group. Groupies welcome, btw ;-)
