Greetings,

I am a native Greek speaker and I would like to help translate TortoiseSVN. I followed the instructions specified in the translations page and requested to join the Greek team on Transifex but it's been about a week and I haven't received a response yet. Is there anything else I should have done first? Did I miss a step somewhere? I tried sending a private message to coordinator Luebbe on Transifex but I haven't heard back. 

Apologies if this is in the wrong section. This seemed to be the most appropriate place to ask. If there's another way to contact the team / start the process, please let me know.


Best regards,
Apostolos

Luebbe doesn't check his messages every day. Usually once a week or so.

But I can't find your name on the transifex site - I didn't get a notification about you applying for the Greek translation team. Can you try again?

Hi Stefan,

thank you for getting back to me. I double checked my status on Transifex and it shows that I have applied to the Greek team one week ago but I'm still not part of any organization. I tried reapplying but the "Greek" option no longer shows, probably because the initial request is still pending.

How does Transifex show applicants to you as an administrator? By real name or username? If you can see the real name, I should be there (my first name is Apostolos). Could you have another look? Nothing seems out of the ordinary on my side and it doesn't look like there's anything else I can do.


Best regards,
Apostolos

Hello again Stefan,

I reapplied to join the Greek translation team with another account on Transifex. Is the new request visible this time?


Best regards,

Unfortunately, no.
I've contacted transifex about this. I'll report back once I hear from them.

We'll have to wait for Lübbe to read his emails since he's the only one able to accept your request.

I think Lübbe just added you to the Greek translation team.

Hi Stefan,

I can confirm that I'm now part of the project on Transifex and I thank you for accepting me.

I have one last request. Is there a way to privately contact one of the managing persons of TortoiseSVN somehow? I looked around on the website but I haven't been able to find a way. I would like to ask for permission on another matter and I would prefer to do that in private.


Best regards,
Apostolos
