The discussion of new properties for translation made me curious about where
we stand, so below is a summary of the languages sorted by their coverage
percentages. Hopefully this HTML format message won't get munged in
transmission (or bounced).
We have 10 translations in various states of completion, but only English
and German are really complete. Norwegian comes in at 96% with Italian and
Portugese being the only other languages above 90%. After that things tail
off quickly with Spanish and Russian coming in around 80%, then French and
Romanian around 70%, and finally Chinese and Swedish bring up the rear at
under 60%. (Of course the Swedish isn't really an issue since I've never
met a Swedish programmer who's English wasn't as good as mine).
Which languages is it most important to have coverage for? What can we do
to improve them?
