[FOSS-GPS] Releasing FoxtrotGPS 1.2.0--translations needed

[Joshua Judson Rosen]

Oh, FYI--the web-based translation tool for FoxtrotGPS
in Launchpad is available here:

        https://translations.launchpad.net/foxtrotgps

If you're interested in helping, you can just pick your language
out of the list at the bottom of that page, and it'll drop you
into online translation editor with suggestions for new translations
based on how people have translated similar strings in other
projects on Launchpad.

And, if you have other tools that you'd prefer to use (like Poedit
or maybe Emacs po-mode): you can also download the current po file
from Launchpad, edit it with your preferred tools, and then upload it.
