Translation teams already exist for many languages. To join a team, contact the team leader.
If a team does not exist for your language, consider starting one.

### Starting a new team

If no team for your language is listed here and you want to start a new one, please send an email to announce the new team to the mailing list.
It should have a subject like "New team for [your language name] ([your language code])" and contain the name and the email of the person who is the new coordinator for that language (And if one exists, the URL of the Team's page).
(The webmaster will add this team to this page shortly after)

### Project Web Pages and Mailing Lists

We would like to encourage translation teams to have web pages, even if they are simple ones, and mailing lists. For many teams, the easiest and best way to do this is to use Savannah. Savannah will allow you to create a project for your team, providing you use it to advance open source development, which you are doing. It will give you a place to set up web pages, have a mailing list, and place files for people to download. You can even set up CVS if you find that helpful. It also allows you to give access to multiple team members so you can each update the web pages, downloadable files, etc.

### Errors

If there are any errors in the contact/web address of a team please write to the mailing list.
