    77Great!  We love translations!  First you should look at the current translation statistics at [https://developer.pidgin.im/l10n/].  There you can see if there is already a translation for your language and whether this translation is complete and actively maintained.  If there is already a translation, you can find the translator's name in the header of the .po file for your language.

    9 The second thing you should do is join the [http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/translators translators mailing list] and ask if anyone is already working on translating that language.  If there is already a translation which is not actively maintained, you can also offer your help.

    13 The translations are shipped with each Pidgin release, so there is no great advantage to submitting a translation multiple times during a release cycle.  We announce a string freeze on the [http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/translators translators mailing list] about 4 days before each release.  This is a promise to you that we will not add any new strings or change any existing ones.  During this time you should finish translating any new strings and submit a new translation to us.
