A discussion started on the topic of emacs l10n a few days ago on emacs-devel and reached the above conclusion. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2007-07/threads.html A similar (but shorter) discussion took place in 2001 but nothing happened because there were basically no takers to write the necessary code. My understanding (...) is that the task involves elisp coding as well as C coding (for the emacs/gettext combination part). Emacs lovers all over the world... Any taker ?
