I am responding to this thread not to continue the discussion about 
localizing Klingon for GNOME, because it appears that the consensus 
between Christian Rose and Arafat Medini and others that that portion 
of the thread is closed.

I was originally responding to a poster who asked if Klingon was going 
to be localized for GNOME, and I said I'm not sure about GNOME, but I 
do know for certain that we are localizing Klingon for OpenOffice.org 
(OOo for short).

My primary motivation for doing so is to open up the very powerful 
graphics, spread sheet, and word processing programs of OOo for 
Klingonists who want to do web pages, conference announcements, etc 
etc with this powerful open source office suite. 

If you are interested in participating in this project, please just go 
to the link below, go through the registration process, and wait a day 
or so for you registration to be manually approved (since we are 
keeping the web site and discuss list private for now).  Or email me 
off of the tlhIngan-Hol@kli.org to discuss it further, as the 
moderator of the tlhIngan-Hol@kli.org has asked that we not have these 
kinds of discussions on that list, so please make sure to delete that 
address from any replies.  Thanks.
