That's great to hear.

No, the translation acronyms aren't automatically what you think they 
are. "uk.po" refers to the *Ukrainian* translation -- which you are 
invited to work on, but I guess that's not what you thought it was :-)

The translation of gnucash is now handled through the GNU Translation 
Project. Translators can handle the po update through the Translation 
Project Robot, see 
http://www2.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard/po/registry.cgi?domain=gnucash and 
the section "Replies for Translators", 
http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/translators.html . 
Alternatively, translators can simply send their updated po files to the 
gnucash-patches mailing list and I'll commit them to our CVS server.

There exists a team for en_GB, so why don't you contact that team 
leader? Can be found in the "Language Team" section of the Translation 
Project website. For gnucash specific translation information, grab a 
tarball of gnucash and have a look in the po/README document.

I appreciate your interest and I'm looking forward to hearing more from 
UK about translations :-))
