I'm working on the translation, but I thought this ought to be sent first.
AFAIK, currently if a [EMAIL PROTECTED] translation is added it won't be
selectable.

You mean in countrychooser/shortlist-ca ?  This only asks for country, so it
cannot distinguish between Valencian and non-Valencian speaking areas (both in
eastern Spain).

Also, Valencian speakers normaly identify their language as "Valencian", not as
"Catalan".  Requiring that they choose Catalan and then select their locale in
a sub-menu might be confusing to some of them.

They're in SVN pending upload.  But if you prefer to wait untill they're in sid,
that is alright.  I don't think it'll take much.
