Josip Rodin is unreachible or again technical problem appear ?!
I sent 3(three) messages (on sunday, wed, thu) this week to all Rodin's
accounts that I know (joy@srce.hr, joy@debian.org, webmaster@debian.org)
with changed .po files,
updated .wml's and pics, but no response accurred. Before week there was
the same problem, Rodin contact me after the fourth message
and explain me, that there is a problem with forwarding mails to his
primary mail, so I suggest this problem appear again and sending message
to this mail list is the last hope that I have to contact with him. It
sould be good if it's possible to fix this eventual technical problems,
becouse near month I tried to submit Bulgarian translation of the
Debian's web site without visible result.
Thank you for attention:
Rumen Krasstev
P.S.
I just add some past messages that I sent to him:
