Translations are handled by the Translation Project; all I do is to commit the updates we receive. :-) http://translationproject.org/domain/guix-packages.html Vincent, if you=E2=80=99d like to help with the translation of package descriptions and synopses, please see: http://translationproject.org/html/translators.html We need more people on this, so your help would be most welcome! Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
