I don't know if we have a procedure to grant or not this.
Normally I add a language upon request, without much questioning.

Unless of course we have an equivalent language, as is the case.

I asked privately Mr. Mahmoud Bekhit about this. After a couple of emails
the conclusion was that there are errors on current Arabic translation that
prevented him to use Koha, that's the reason of his request.

I verified this on Koha 3.20.5, for example search is broken in opac.
( check
http://translate.koha-community.org/ar/3.20/translate/ar-Arab-opac-bootstrap.po#unit=13167462
)

For now I will not add ar-Arab-EG, but kindly request our Arabic speakers
that they take a look at current translation and fix any errors.
I will be glad to help on anything needed.

Best regards
Bernardo
