I believe it's the most important to translate right
now, yes. Our documentation is generally written in
English, so it's not that big of a deal for the Style
Guide and Handbook to be English-only.
On the other hand, the Handbook might provide information
that's useful to translators as they're translating our
documentation.
The Style Guide, though, is largely English-dependent.
There's probably some information in there that's useful
to other languages, but a direct translation probably
wouldn't make much sense.
I do think a properly *localized* (as opposed to simply
translated) version of the Style Guide would be useful.
But I don't know how we can coordinate such localizations
with our current tools.
I'm CCing gnome-i18n to get ideas.
