Subject: Greek translation
Trying to do it, I hope to finish it.

For now I have problem with name.txt:
Can't make it to display my language correctly at the drop-down box.

Help?

Use UTF-8 encoding with BOM (byte-order mark, also called "signature"), then you can use approx. 100.000 different characters.

I was using UltraEdit.
Switched to Notepad++ and problem solved!

I am half-way there but it will be good to know if anyone is interested to test/check my translation.

Anyone?

Subject: Forum/s tab
Yves, how can the text  for tab "Forum" share the same text as the word Forum in (see at the top of this page): "Forum: Customising UNB › Translations"?

It must be either separate or at least must share the plural form ("Forums").

Correct me if I am wrong but you click to see the summary of all forums and not only one of them.

This is a problem of the 'modern' design that shows the pages as tabs.  The tab text is certainly expected to describe the content of the page that is only one forum.  Accordingly, the singular form 'Forum' has to be used.

Correct me if I am wrong but you click to see the summary of all forums and not only one of them.
That's why I proposed the change 'forum' → 'overview' in http://newsboard.unclassified.de/forum/post/7609.  However, now the tab text 'overview' might be confusing (it worked for me because I use a simple menu for the navigation links)...

Translation paused because I completed the common things that are shown to the users.
I will continue probably when I am in the mood.

If anyone want the unfinished translation files, please ask!
