Getting into release notes is a motivation enough for many people.
Even if it might not be for all the right reasons, it's still
motivation and I believe we should keep it.
I have long wanted to implement a better "supportedness" measure, and
integrate it into Damned Lies.
FWIW, this has been documented inside
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/damned-lies/trunk/HACKING?revision=60&view=markup
for a while (well, since damned-lies was started :).
This would give us a better and more useful measure, but should also
provide us with "filtered" PO files (i.e. get only level-2 strings for
starting teams).
Cheers,
Danilo
