I had there only two languages, english and czech, and the czech language was there because I bought it in Slovakia(who dont know Slovakia and Czech were once Czechoslovakia - so the languages are almost similar). I dont know how is it posible that the guy has option of 7 languages.
Aim
Localization is an important part of today's apps. I felt it while developing my app. A lot of users requested the app to be translated into their language and I was well surprised to see so many willing to help me with the translation. I would never have done it without them. Therefore I propose the following:
Let's create a list of translation volunteers and the language they are willing to help translate into and make it public so any app developer can contact them regarding translation into a specific language.
I also propose developing a standardised way of communication and translation process that we can put up together.
For instance lets all agree on a versioning solution (e.g. Github) that both developers and translation volunteers can use to maintain translation xml files. This way, developer can always update the file on the versioning platform and then translation volunteer can see what has changed and translate the new content.
NOTE - If you reply and volunteer yourself pelase specify what language(s) are you able to help with by selecting it/them from the list below

Perhaps building a table or database of available translators for each language would be a good start. Also, a list of the actually known and supported languages from Android itself would help in building such list. In the listwe, should include name, email, actual country, and available language/dialects from this translator.
For myself, I could help in translating for French. I am Canadian, and so I usually translate for the "fr_CA" language code, but this does not stop me from translating for general French. Of course, we have our own local words for terms such as email, spam, etc..... but those are usually well understood by other "dialects" of French.
I'm Dutch. So if I were contacted for translations I could do NL_nl.
Hi, I can translate to Arabic. I previously translated an app "Tic Tac Toe" to arabic, and everything went perfectly.
PLZ, add my name to the list of translators. "Arabic"
