+1, in Spanish the "with us" sounds weird.

This leaves us enough time to land the new package upload with the updated translation to make it to the final 14.04 release. Furthermore, the translation cut-off percentage for the documentation is 80%; only translations with 80% or more translated strings will be shipped. >> >> We acknowledge this is a tight schedule, especially for the complete Xubuntu documentation. However, we do think that it is completely possibly to do it in the time given especially if multiple people per language start working on a translation. Ultimately, nothing is in vain: We will be updating the packages with our point releases. This gives you a full six months to translate the documentation into your language and get it included with the first point release of Trusty, 14.04.1, to released in October. >> >> If you have any questions about translating itself, any technical detail or any other question related to translations, feel free to be in touch with us either via #xubuntu-devel on Freenode, or the Xubuntu developer mailing list [2]. >> >> Happy translating! >> >> On behalf of the Xubuntu documentation team, >> Pasi Lallinaho >> >> [1] <a href="https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/">https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/</a> >> [2] <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a> >> >> -- >> Pasi Lallinaho (knome) » <a href="http://open.knome.fi/">http://open.knome.fi/</a> >> Leader of Shimmer Project and Xubuntu » <a href="http://shimmerproject.org/">http://shimmerproject.org/</a> >> Graphic artist, webdesigner, Ubuntu member » <a href="http://xubuntu.org/">http://xubuntu.org/</a> >> >> >> -- >> xubuntu-devel mailing list >> <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> >> <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a> >> > > > -- > xubuntu-devel mailing list > <a href="mailto:xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com">xubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com</a> > <a href="https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel">https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-devel</a>
