I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, I thought that anyone could request a translation there and I thought that the new guidelines for the multilingual IRC channel #wikipedia were a good candidate for translation. Feel free to revert what I've done; I'm new to translation. I did not try and assign it higher status than the WMF documents - those are definitely more important! Nothing I do is on behalf of ComProj and as an informal group, nobody can really act on behalf of ComProj. In the future, I'll use Babylon.
Sorry!

Yup. I am sure that it was pure misunderstanding by Greeves. He'll see this and find out, and can ask us any questions he has. :-)

Just to make it clear to everyone, ComProj is an unofficial collection of people who want to help with communications projects that Sandy needs doing, and that such a group allows us to work better together. We do not have any authority or status (aside from as helpful people!), and that is why we are able to have a completely open group which anyone can join, which is a Good Thing :-)

Hello I am very surprised at seeing the below: Other requests from Transcom
* 6 August 2007: Translation requests/Wikipedia IRC guidelines * 22 July 2007: Translation requests/WMFnews * 19 July 2007: Translation requests/WMF/Current staff * 12 July 2007: Board elections/2007/Results * 21 April 2007: Translation requests/Benefactors....
And this request was created by Greeves. I recommended Greeves to submit his request to Babylon but never encourage him or her to behave in such a manner. He has no good reason to speak in the name of Transcom, more over assign higher prioirity to his favorite document than Wikimedia Foundaition website.
I don't know Greeves so I don't know why he is so boldly acting. I would like to make it sure ComProjGroup has no right to act under Communications Subcommitee name without their agreement.
I don't received mails from this list, so cc would be appreciated.
I reduced the request status to new, not open, to remove it from the list.
Thank you for your understanding.
