Hi Serafim

Well there is no need to be worrying. Although we have been a bit behind,
the situation is not that bad. As it is shown in the following link
(http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/) we are at a 95% of the translation
for the D-I manual/installation Guide and the statistics are not bad
either for the sublevels 1-5 (with the exception perhaps of sublevel 3).

With some extra help we are going definitely to make it on time for Lenny!
The mailing list for the Greek localization is
debian-l10n-greek@lists.debian.org and despite its low traffic over the
last period remains the most effective channel for communicating any
relevant
interest.
