Translated Programs

Is the list of translated programs intended to be comprehensive? If so I'm sure there are a large number of small utilities etc which could be added to the list (my own HelpScan being one) but probably never will be...

Perhaps it would be a more useful resource for finding only those programs where a translation is available but is not part of the standard distribution?

I agree with your suggestion. Listing builtin translations of applications is not that useful.

I don't know... suppose your Czech grandmother wants to use the computer. It's useful to know which applications she can use - whether a translation is included might be a decider. Maybe put them as a separate page? Caliston 17:47, 6 Feb 2007 (GMT)

Sorry, perhaps I was a bit quick with the delete key ;)
My concern is only a practical one - I doubt that many programs will end up getting listed here. However, I guess it could be useful information so am entirely happy if it's decided to revert my last change.

Another idea for the pot - perhaps this page could also be used to list applications which are looking for translators and for translators to offer their services? (A bit like the new help-wanted pages)

Why "Removed built-in applications"? It makes it look as though there are more or less *no* applications with non-English resources. I went to a lot of trouble to write my translated Messages and Templates files with my applications. This page should list all applications that have non-English resources, not just non-English resources that not supplied with the application. "I want to use StrongEd in German, but I see that StrongEd isn't listed as having German resources, ok, I'll not bother."
