Hi,

David Wonderly (Darkwing) promised in IRC [1] that translations will be  
released with 12.10 and so did Johnathan Riddell.

So you have to wait and trust that they will keep the promise [2].

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri

P.S. The current docs after the nuking of translations by the formatting  
changes right before 12.04 are not worth to translate, imho. Plasma has  
changed significantly, it refers to unsupported non-KDE applications  
(Kino) instead of native (Kdenlive), Muon is undocumented (at all, despite  
the promises), development section is a mess.
