Carlos, if you work still has some way to go before finishing, then I'd
suggest reviving the old scripts temporarily, with lower status
regeneration frequency (such as running with nice -19, only update
status pages each other day etc... they are controllable via cron,
and no modification of old scripts is necessary).

Even the status regeneration is wrong, people can still get a rough
idea what's the status for their languages, yet you can still work
on your rewrite of status generation scripts/program. This can be
a compromise IMHO.
