[IAEP] [SLOBS] Multilingual Updated Image 4 South América

Walter,

Guarani has strong regional importance as it has been selected as one of
the official languages of the Mercorsur
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercosur> along with Spanish and Portuguese,
making it relevant for members and associated countries: *Argentina,
Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador and
Suriname*.

>From translate.sugarlabs.org it can be noticed that Martín Oesterreich
still working on finishing the translations. We appreciate this effort and
hope for refined translations for the language.

However, as I mentioned earlier, the effort of Sugar Labs *to make
available a Multilingual Upgraded Image* with Debian doesn't contemplate
the needs of any specific deployment but instead it aims to become a
reliable base for deployments on all these countries (including all other
relevant translated languages like Quechua and Aymara).

This work seems more justified now than ever. This is what I am proposing.


Regards and blessings,

Laura V
