Zeki,

Yes. I am working on a project for Manas University in Kyrgyz Republic. It is a Turkish University in Central Asia.  It is an attempt to create a complete Web-services Based On-Line Virtual Library and Educational Environment (see attachment); with English, Turkish, Russian and Kirgyz language interfaces.  Currently I am working on the interfaces for the  Z3950 Portal and Database component and have decided to use Koha for the Library Opac Component. Since all of the Software used is Open-Source, you may be interested in getting involved in the project. I would be interested in working on the Turkish translation with you; you should also take a look at this url and see if you may be interested in using the Open Site Search application at your institution, I can help you set it up.:
http://opensitesearch.sourceforge.net/docs/helpzone/main.html

Also I have either not received the localization files from Paul, or they were lost in the 100's of spam email messages I receive every day.

Hi Mr. Gerry

  
Paul,

If you send me the files, I would be willing to do translations for
Russian, Turkish and Kyrgyz.. I would like to use Koha as the Opac
front end for a project which I am working on in Central Aasia.

    
I've read your e-mail at Koha list about localization to different languages. I'm working 
about Koha in Turkey. We have used Koha in our faculty. I've gave some seminars about 
Koha (http://seminer.linux.org.tr/seminer-notlari/) with turkey linux community. Now I'm 
working at Istanbul Techincal University which collaborate in with your university 
(http://www.uzem.itu.edu.tr/suny/) 

Paul gave me Koha localization files to translate to Turkish but I've saw your email at the 
same time when I would start to translate. 

Do you have a plan to start to Turkish translation?

Perhaps we could work with together.

Talk to you soon again

Cheers

Zeki
