Japanese translation
I want to update Japanese translation, but active Japanese maintainer is not found.
In this case, where should I send translated files to? Or contact someone?

Re: Maintainer of my language is not active
I don't think myself a good translator, but if I can help your work...
Assuming you're translating the mainline contents,
- For anyone who wonder: according to the changelogs, Japanese translation is not updated since 1.11.8, which was released January 2014.
- According to this page's "Translators" and "NEW Translators" section, you have to contact the Translation Maintainers (for Japanese, seemingly, iwaim and Okada). List of the Maintainers and their possible e-mail addresses can be found here. ...But I guess you've already tried that and it didn't work.
- If they're inactive, contact the Language Coordinator, Ivanovic and explain the situation... It's the only solution I can think of. (And if it fails too, any active official developers you can find.)
(Now I noticed posting in Japanese would've been a lot easier. But I don't care.)

Thanks to reply, watbesh.
Okada said that he has not concerned wesnoth for a long time.
iwaim and I were going to fix translation(marksman in sword, firststrike ...etc) before release of 1.12.4. But I lost contact with him on the way, and there still hasn't been any contact from him.

OK, I will ask Ivanovic about this.- If they're inactive, contact the Language Coordinator, Ivanovic and explain the situation... It's the only solution I can think of. (And if it fails too, any active official developers you can find.)

Re: Maintainer of my language is not active
You're welcome! I'm not a member of official (core or Japanese) translators/developers, so I'm not sure that things I suggested would work. I just wanted someone to update the translation, and decided to try to help you.
If iwaim is active, contact with Ivanovic is not a must - I suggested that because I thought, if no maintainer is active, you would have to do the maintainer's job in their stead anyway. This job seems to be beyond my ability and interest.

Re: Maintainer of my language is not active
I contacted Ivanovic and he told me to become a new maintainer.
But I am busy now, so it will be few weeks later that I start work.
Alternatively, if want to start work as soon as possible, watbesh, you can become a maintainer instead of me.
(I am not good at English, maybe your English skill is better than me. )

Now I am a new Japanese maintainer.
I think release of 1.14 is many months later, so I plan to fix 1.12 translation before the next maintainance release.(but I don't know its release dates.)
And I made transifex page ready(I used transifex to translate IftU and AtS).
I and some friends started to translation on the transifex page. If want to join translation, login the transifex page or contact me.

Re: Japanese translation
Yes, focus should be on the 1.12 branch especially considering in 1.13/1.14 strings are still changing all the time. Are you already subscribed to the translators mailing list? Not the busiest one, but important announcements are posted there.
Re: Japanese translation
Thanks to reply. I already did it.
