Great! The latest language files are always here: http://moodle.org/download/lang/

Any luck with the Lycos problem? My guess is that Lycos somehow prevent redirections.

I have the same problem with Fabricio's English

Fixes welcome!

What did you end up using as your locale?

XHTML is a bit of sore point. Yes, I'm fully aware of it's advantages - the reason Moodle isn't XHTML-compliant yet is partly because it was started several years ago, partly because I'm too old-school and partly because there have just been many other things to do lately. The current HTML works OK at present so it's not been urgent. However there are plans for a complete interface overhaul in Moodle 2.0 using XML with XSLT to produce XHTML, which should satisfy everyone.

And you'll find that you CAN use double quotes if you edit language files using the web-based editor rather than directly by hand (the script should do all the escaping properly).

Cheers,

Hi, Jaime.

Welcome! It's a pleasure to have you here.

I'm particularly interested to hear about Savannah, as one of the next things I most want to work on is a tracker module for Moodle, something of a cross between these forums and the Savannah/Sourceforge style of tracker.

So perhaps there are opportunities for some cross-fertilisation, which we can talk about more in the Developer forum.

Cheers,
Martin
