If you want to check the current progress or join the efforts to translate '''OMP''' to more languages and improve existing translations, visit Transifex (http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/gidzzz-qt-mediaplayer/resource/openmediaplayer/). When a translation becomes complete enough (something about 90%), it will be included in the official package. | If you want to check the current progress or join the efforts to translate '''OMP''' to more languages and improve existing translations, visit Transifex (http://www.transifex.net/projects/p/gidzzz-qt-mediaplayer/resource/openmediaplayer/).
