That is the Russian language in its traditional, pristine orthography as used until orthography reform of 1918. With Internet coverage and corresponding freedom of expression rising, more and more people use it in their communication. Free software should support it.

Translation team is required as the conversion to pristine orthography from modern isn't trivial and cannot be accomplished by automatic means only.
