Now this is good idea. Who may write to gcc-announce? And possibly we
could also add a 'translators wanted' note to our website.

Where should this tour go? I'd say as a note in gcc/gcc and as a topic
on our web pages. It wouldn't take much as the steps are rather easy:

  - cd to gcc/po
  - copy gcc.pot to <language>.po
  - edit the po file header
  - translate the messages
  - search gcc/configure.in for ALL_LINGUAS and add the language you
    translated for.
  - rebuild configure by calling autoconf

Next time you run configure, all will be set up to include your
translation.
