[WG: I18N & L10N] Possible Spanish Roster translation issue?

[Daniel Merino]

We talked about this topic yesterday in the S2U meeting.

Two years ago, a voting was done between spanish-sakai list members 
about the official translation of Roster. While "Orla" is a valid word 
recognized by the official institutions (1), is not well known in some 
spanish-speaking countries, so we all decided to translate it as 
"Participantes" (2). The translation was made by Miguel Carro, but it 
seems that it was reverted later.

I don't know how the word "Listado" was introduced, but it was not in 
the proposed translations for that voting.

So FYI yesterday we decided to create a JIRA to change the translation 
from "Orla" to "Participantes".

Best regards.
