For KDE, there is an upstream team, please get in touch with them here:

http://l10n.kde.org/team-infos.php?teamcode=mt

And please, do *not* translate *any* KDE packages in Rosetta, since
there is an upstream team. All translation by KDE and Gnome are done
upstream, so work in Rosetta would be redundant and we all know how
bad the results end up.

Keep in mind that translations need to be done by native speakers who
know their language well, with all the subtleties and grammatical
twists. Even if others seem to have different opinions, AFAIAC, I
prefer to have no translation at all than a bad one. It sheds a very
bad light on the project.


Regards, Myriam.
