I would help with the English->German translation, too.

Hello, the time for ReactOS website to become multilanguage is coming, and actually is rather near :-)
So, to start, we need to gather a team of translators for every language. As an initial attempt, I searched the ReactOS maillist archives, and found the following people are (were?) willing to do the ReactOS translation.
Here is the list:
Name Languages E-Mail
Rick Langschultz 1) French mailto:absleadcoder@cox.net absleadcoder@cox.net
2) Spanish
3) Irish Gaelic
4) Manx Gaelic
Mikhail Y. Zvyozdochkin Russian mailto:mzvyozd@narod.ru mzvyozd@narod.ru
Waldo Alvarez Spanish mailto:wac@ghost.matcom.uh.cu wac@ghost.matcom.uh.cu
Alexander Ciobanu 1) Romanian mailto:alex@prodidactica.md alex@prodidactica.md
2) Russian
Filip Navara Czech mailto:xnavara@volny.cz xnavara@volny.cz
Bjorn Fischer German mailto:thebear80@gmx.net thebear80@gmx.net
Mark IJbema Dutch mailto:mark@ijbema.xs4all.nl mark@ijbema.xs4all.nl
Lorenzo Italian mailto:garbage@loz.it garbage@loz.it
mtg Japanese mailto:mtg@ce.wakwak.com mtg@ce.wakwak.com
mailto:tmtsac@hotmail.com tmtsac@hotmail.com
Oliwer French mailto:oliwer@free.fr oliwer@free.fr
This list is a very preliminary one, since actually I haven't asked anyone from this list if he really wants to do the translation now, except for Oliwer, who already sent me an email regarding his English -> French translation skills.
If anyone has changed their mind since they post to ros-general/ros-kernel --- let me know, and I will remove you from this list.
So far we have this (hope line wrap doesn't harm this, in any case I will repost the updated versions of these tables in a better format later):
Czech Dutch French Gaelic (Irish) Gaelic (Manx) German Italian Japanese Romanian Russian Spanish
Navara IJbema Oliwer Langschultz Langschultz Fischer Lorenzo mtg Ciobanu Bragin Langschultz
(GvG ?) Langschultz
Ciobanu
Zvyozdochkin
We have a good situation in Dutch (IJbema can translate, and GvG can approve --- ? ), French, and Russian (we may have even another man here - Semyon Novikov) languages. But certainly for a start, at least one people per language is enough, though two are highly preferable.
I will post translation rules and guideline here later, and actually I am going to start preparing the stuff for translation.
With the best regards, Aleksey Bragin.
