Tip: As of PrestaShop v1.0 RC3, you must manually translate the following parts of PrestaShop:

* Legal & Conditions. Translations of legal mentions and sales conditions must be made manually by adding text to ../themes/prestashop/mentions.tpl and ../themes/prestashop/conditions.tpl respectively. If legal & conditions in your language have not been received by PrestaShop, please send them to us for inclusion in the next version.

* Installer. Translation of the installer must be made manually by providing the translations in the ../install/langs/us.php file. After you have translated the file, please send it to us for inclusion in the next version.
