Re: Debian release-notes: call to update translations -- Turkish

[Nuri KÜÇÜKLER <nurikucukler@yahoo.com>]

Hi Holger,

Thanks a lot for the information. I'm really grateful. I noticed the build error and was planning to understand what caused it. So your mail helped a lot.

I completed the translations and send them to the Debian Turkish Translation group for reviews, after waiting a week, they'll be ready to publish.

As Turkish being a (very) agglunative language, we always need to add suffixes. Actually I can change "*Debian Belgelendirme Projesi*nin Git" as "*Debian Belgelendirme Projesi*'nin Git", and there would be no problems.

I'm going to have to check other similar things too.

Next week, after the period of review is complete, I guess I'm going to need to perform a Merge Request to add Turkish translations to the Debian system.

Thanks a lot and regards,

Nuri KÜÇÜKLER
