 h3. Translating CHIRP 

 If you want to help translate CHIRP into another language, please follow these steps: 

  # Create a "new issue":http://chirp.danplanet.com/projects/chirp/issues/new for the language and include the language code. Here is a "helpful list":http://www.science.co.il/Language/Codes.asp. 
  # Someone will create an empty template .po file and attach it to your issue 
  # Translate the file. Generally, "poedit":http://poedit.net/ is the best way to do this. Be sure to fill out the translator meta-details. 
  # Attach the resulting translated .po file to the ticket 
  # A developer will check it over and then submit it for inclusion
