Absolutely, I’m aware this will require future maintenance, and understand
that is going to mean an effort from my side. I will do it with pleasure. I
just wish I had started earlier.

I’m sending v2 including the pertinent changes in MAINTAINERS. It will also
have minor improvements to make the test robot happy and details found
reviewing the translations again.

I plan to continue translating the rest of files at the pace time permits.

Thanks John,
