Could you please provide more details about what language you would like to convert?

The list of available language packs for Joomla! 2.5 could be found at http://community.joomla.org/translations/joomla-16-translations.html.

You could also check whether the language pack you need is listed at http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/languages/translations-for-joomla.

We do have a specific component that will take as much strings as possible from a 1.5 to a 2.5, easing the work for new 2.5 language packs.

It is the kurdish language. I have looked it up, but its just for Joomla 1.5. Kurdish (kurmanji), not kurdish (sorani)

Suggest reviewing the discussion http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?p=2614929#p2614929 that provides a tool to convert the 1.5 language packs to 1.7 language packs. This could translate around 60% of the strings. Hopefully this should help you out in your effort.

I notice that there is a Central Kurdish (Kurdish Soranî) Translation team and there released the language packs for Joomla! 2.5 and you can see them listed at http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/jtranslation1_6/frs/?action=FrsReleaseBrowse&frs_package_id=5735. Is this different than the one you are talking about?

If, based on the Kurdish soranî pack, you make a Kudish kurmanji pack, please contact Mig or myself to get this pack registered to make it available to all Joomla users.

The tag for Kudish kurmanji shall be:
kmr-COUNTRYISOCODE

I guess the country iso code for this language could be either
Turkey (TR), Syria (SY) or Iraq (IQ)
