Update on Localisation Style Guides and Glossaries

[Aoife Dunne - Sunsoft ELC <Aoife Dunne ireland sun com>]

Hello All
Thanks to everyone who responded taking ownership to translate the 
glossary once the English is cleaned up.  The responses was great, 
however, I am still missing volunteers for some languages.  I 
understand if a particular team does not have the capacity to take on 
this additional work, but if you could let me know, I will work to 
find a volunteers to represent the language on my side.

The English glossary will be available for translation around the 31st 
January.

We currently have the following volunteers:
