Gràcies Raimon,

també es troben publicats, a www.joomla.cat i a
http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/jtranslation/, els paquets en català:
- paquet complet per a instal·lacions noves
- paquet d'actualització des de Joomla! 1.5.7 (sense necessitat
d'actualitzar primer el Joomla amb el paquet anglès). Es tracta de
descomprimir el paquet a l'ordinador i transferir per FTP el conjunt
d'arxius.
- paquet d'idioma 1.5.8, que s'instal·la com és habitual des de la
part d'administrador del web. Aquest paquet és recomanable instal·lar-
ho malgrat s'hagi optat per l'actualització del Joomla complet (punt
anterior), ja que arregla el problema dels mesos començats per vocals
que no sortien apostrofats.
