Re: Questions about DDTP
As a new translator, and not so new user, I would say, yes, you are
completely wrong. :)
There are lots of funny stuff related with aptitude, apt-get and other
free software. Have you heard about Super Cow? :)
I don't think it's refusing people, on contrary. Just give your best
in translating, and if you think something is difficult to translate,
and not to lose it's meaning, just quote it. Or, you can add some joke
in your language, that could be interesting.
Of course, there is always a possibility that I'm wrong, but there is
always a community to correct me. :)
Greetings from your namesake.
