Re: Place for stable phone (vivid stable-phone-overlay) translations

 

Did anybody reply to "Is there a special step for a new language to be
included in the phone
localisation?" in Simos' message. The Cymraeg / Welsh translators worked
hard to translate Ubuntu phone to Welsh. Really disappointed that it was
not available in the latest update.

1 - How can we push for this to happen?
2 - Can we install a language manually on the phone?

Thanks

Owen
