Re: About pgAdmin III - Mailing list pgadmin-hackers

I don't agree,

there is a problem fitting greek translations in the
dialogs. The same occurs with some other languages
too.

Pgadmin has become a "global" tool, and it would be
nice if the designers considered the user's opinion
from the other part of world!

BTW, pgadmin's functionality is in the dialogs: FULL
of features.
