Where do I find the Instruments in the instruments list?

I want to translate all of the instruments from the instruments list in Romanian, could you guys please provide me a link with their location? I can't find it.

On Windows you'd typically find it in C:\Program Files\MuseScore\templates\instruments.xml.
For Romanian, it should instruments_ro.xml, I guess.

I was searching for it so I can translate it, because there isn't one for the Romanian language already.

Is it anywhere on the online translating part of the website so I can have an easier time translating it?
(I never liked SourceForge.net, it always looked way too "develop-ish" for me.)

Just take the existing instruments.xml, copy to instrument_ro.xml, translate it and then upload it here. I'm sure the developm,ent team will then grab and add it to the next version of MuseScore

I have no idea how with what tool to translate a .xml file. I thought the translation of words could be done online somehow, in those forms.

Or is this the way everyone translates for MuseScore, they download a .xml file, translate it somehow and than upload it back to the website?

What does happen a lot of times is that you guys might have people like me who know a foreign language, but are not very skilled in intricate coding or just simply don't like to do complicated stuff for that matter, they'd just like to translate stuff easily.

I for one thought that I could just find that Instrument list online and translate it in a somewhat interactive way that is easy to use without any complicated tools that just make one want to give up contributing to the project alltogether. :D LOL (I don't really mean that, but the jist of what I'm saying is true though...)
