RE: [libreoffice-l10n] Maltese Translations

Ok I will forward this to Ramon the original creator of the extension, and see if he could put 
something together for us. Is there a particular format the file should be in in regards to the 
file extension and layout?

Well, basically, we need an English-Maltese dictionary, containing relevant terms only (because the 
more irrelevant words it contains, the less useful become the suggestions).

In fact, Pootle can generate such dictionary for you, but it needs existing translations to do 
that. There are also other tools, but they need input as well. If you have say KDE or Gnome or 
something else localized into Maltese, and you intend to use same terminology as that project (or 
these projects), that could be used as a basis for your compendium. Or you can start from scratch 
and create the dictionary manually. This path would require most of effort from you, but the final 
product would be of best quality.
