[X2Go-Dev] [x2go-i18n] Norwegian x2goclient translation

[Mike Gabriel]

Hi Terje,

thanks for your contribution and your willingness to help continuously  
  in the future.

I am cross-posting this mail to x2go-dev so people become aware of an   
assembling i18n-Team.

@Stefan: make sure you subscribe to this list, as well:

This howto basically is ok. We have removed the x2goclient_LANG.qm   
files from Git now, as they are actually build cruft and do not belong  
  into Git.

Great, this is a good place to attache those files for now. (Until we   
have _and_ use a common bugtracker for X2Go upstream coding).

Please start a page on this and send me the link once you have   
achieved something. I will proof-read.

Asking questions is absolutely fine!!!

Keep up the good work...

BTW: your .ts file has been committed.
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=373da1c16fb5cad8b9f4e77db2085b96f43270ad

Unfortunately, Qt4 seems to lack Bokmal support. So not all   
elements/widgets of x2goclient will be translated. Test packages are   
currently building for Debian, Ubuntu package will follow within the   
next 24 hours. Please install x2goclient from the nightly build repos   
you prefer for your OS/Distro.

Greets,
Mike
