Hello everyone, following the mail from Maren I am reporting to the
translators mailing list to which I believe I never got to subscribed in
the past.

My name is Duarte Ramos and I am currently the only (at least to my
knowlege) website translator for the Portuguese language.
I have been more or less active with the translation depending on the
free time I can spare, although I have to admit that I have been
"loosing steam" as time goes by. That doesn't mean I have stopped
completely, as I plan to keep going until I all is done, and maintain it
afterwards as changes come up.

It would definitely be nice to know which pages are "static" or which
pages are being worked on or undergoing changes so that no translation
effort is lost on out of date content. I have been going through the
(very ) long FAQ page for quite some month now, but a lot of it looks
like really out of date content.
Many are about very old versions of Inkscape I doubt anyone still uses,
and workarounds for old operating systems and past bugs that are
probably no longer relevant today .
