Hi, am I allowed to translate the footer

to Estonian?
If everything on the site is in Estonian, then it would be weird for visitors to see some English text they don't understand. I would keep their link targets the same ofcourse.

Could you submit the changes for addition to CVS?

after you translate it submit the language files to the developers to have it added to the core language files.

It's hardcoded, I don't have access to other CVS than my language and I don't think anyone will be interested in updating all these languages for having extra strings.
Though if someone does that, I can surely add them to Estonian language, though I have the CVS feed + CVS mailing list for details, so if any string is added/modified for english language, I'll do the same with Estonian.

EDIT(7. August): Footer is made translatable in CVS by nano, Estonian translated too...
EDIT2: Oh, not really. But the strings were added to languagefiles, though.
