Re: [Libreoffice] [libreoffice-l10n] Re: Update of the localization files

Hi,

I keep localizing OOo on my computer, with regular updates, knowing or
hoping that at this stage most of changes for OOo 3.4 will make it to LO
3.4. Later, when all files are merged (OOo sdf + lo-build) into a LO set of
po files, I can center on localizing those only.

Lp, m.
