Can you link to the location of the templates for translation? I'd like
to start with this.

A few questions:
1. The packages I mentioned (libfribidi0, culmus, python2.3-pyfribidi)
take only 1 MB. I'm sure this something that can be pushed to the CD for
having the installed system support Hebrew.
2. From your message it seems that your doors are closed for other
languages than the 6 languages your mentioned. Any plans to make an
automatic process to have more than one version of the official CD?
(e.g. if you want language X support, select disk Y from our official
release)
3. If the answer for 2 is NO, than can you put the Hebrew support
without the OO.org translation (which you said is the biggest space
consumer) ?

Thanks for the tip, I'll make sure KDE-Edu is on top of our translation
list. We are almost half way:

My worst case scenario is that we'll have to reinstall some of the
packages from an unofficial repository to have the Hebrew translation in
them.
