A little abstract to Low German



Ok, time for a little novel...:

First of all: thank you very much, Claude, for making me the team coordinator for "Low German"! (Makes me kind of proud to receive that honour! :-)

Second: I would recommend to use the _expression_ "Low German" instead of "Low Saxon", because "Low German" is, what covers all regions of Northern Germany, where this language is spoken and "Low Saxon" just referrs to one region (namely Lower Saxony). But for the reason, that there are a few more regions like Ostfriesland, Hamburg, Bremen, Holstein, etc., it wouild make more sense to name it "Low German". (The german _expression_ for this is "Niederdeutsch", which means "Low German" and not "Niedersächsisch", which would mean "Low Saxon")

And I have just a few petitions:
1. Could one delete the team "nds NFE" (http://l10n.gnome.org/teams/nds NFE) - there are no members, nor activity and the language is already covered by "Low German" and "Low Saxon" (http://l10n.gnome.org/teams/nds)
2. Could one also delete the entry nds NFE from the list here: http://l10n.gnome.org/languages/
3. Could one delete the entry "Low Saxon" from here:
http://l10n.gnome.org/languages/ for benefit of the usage of "Low German (nds)" - because "Low German" and "Low Saxon" are both linked to the same project-site (http://l10n.gnome.org/teams/nds)
4. I could not find out how to rename the viewed group name. I get displayed "Low German and Saxon Translation Team" - could anyone rename it simply into "Low German Translation Team" please, or tell me how to do it myself?

And a little question:
When I choose "Low German" in the language list of my ubuntu system (after the 2.28 release): Will my translations from the translations group be stored here: /usr/share/locale-langpack/nds/LC_MESSAGES ?
And whats with this folder: /usr/share/locale-langpack/nds NFE/LC_MESSAGES ? -> is this related to the obsolete project on gnome.org? (I just have the yelp.mo file in that local folder)
