Hello, I just updated the spanish version of the Countdown [0]: - Added 46 - 98 .PNG files - Added 01, 00 & 00here .PNG files - Added countdown_source2013_ES .SVG & .TAR files However, the file more.png is in a spanish conjugation that not necessarily applies to mostly all countries in Latinamerica, wich is the "voseo" [1]. The difference is a diacritical mark [2], but for some people (like me) it's important. So... I wonder if I should make a es-la sub-page on the wiki for the purpose. What do you think? OTOH, I'm testing the version countdown for my country [3] and doesn't seems to work. It appears the file 00here.png instead the appropriate one for the day. Did I do something wrong?

Usually to avoid the pitfall a synonim could be valid and more apropriate. Mexico is not under -7 but -6 UTC, same as CST in the US. On 7/31/13, Rodrigo Rodriguez <roirobo@ubuntu.org.ni> wrote:

Usually to avoid the pitfall a synonim could be valid and more apropriate.
Every synonim in second person of the singular goes with diacritic mark in es_ES (prepárate, organízate, colabora...) If we choose another pronominal conjugation, the same happens with the es-LA (prepará, organizá, colaborá...) I'll think in another terms to avoid that pitfall. ;-) Mexico is not under -7 but -6 UTC, same as CST in the US.
Fixed, thanks.

I would change the message all together like.. "Esta aquí" or "Ha llegado".

According to the countdown code, the more.png image appears when the event is in more than 99 days left. Anyway, we're at 52 days left, so it doesn't matter. But asking around there, maybe the third person of plural (ustedes) might work: "Prepárense"

Hi! Thanks for doing this. All the countdown with missing files were not enabled. Now Spanish is activated (as it is running on our server) and can be used. For the second part of your question I think native speakers can answer WAY better than me ;-) Thanks. Fred On 08/01/2013 12:17 PM, Rodrigo Rodriguez wrote:
