Thank you, Antonio! There is one thing that you should do immediately or 
you will miss answers and announcements: subscribe to this mailing list; 
to do so, send an empty e-mail to l10n-subscribe@openoffice.apache.org 
and respond to the confirmation request you will receive.

We had a few volunteers who showed up for Portuguese PT but the only one 
who responded to my last call for updates is Paulo, in CC. Please try to 
coordinate with him, at least to make sure you are not duplicating work.

We have a translation deadline next week if you want the pt_PT version 
to be released in January. Everything is already available. Basically, 
you need the "PO files" for Portuguese which are available at
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/translation/aoo341_pt_po-files.tar.bz2
and instructions on how to handle them are at
http://www.openoffice.org/l10n/how_to_join.html
and
http://openoffice.apache.org/translate.html

Should you need any more help, just ask.

Regards,
   Andrea.
