Translation statistics for Gnome 2.4 desktop and developer platform

[Danilo Segan <dsegan gmx net>]

Here's a list of all the languages that Gnome is being translated to, 
and how well are they supported.

If release team cares about this kind of list, I can commit myself to 
doing it on a weekly basis. All the information is extracted from the 
page at http://dev.g.org/projects/gtp/status/gnome-2.4/essential.html, 
just sorted to clearly indicate which languages are "supported" in 
Gnome parlance, which are "partially supported" and which are 
"unsupported". You can also easily follow how close are translations to 
certain points.

This covers only the 'desktop' and 'developer-libs' categories.

So, here's the list.

This is just a simple (and ugly) Perl hack to extract all this data 
from essential.html, so bugs are likely. Yet, for the few random 
entries I checked, it seems everything is ok.

Who wants to see this hack may do so at

If you believe any other information would be nice to have (like 
separate percentages for desktop and developer-libs categories), just 
ask.


Cheers,
