I compared the list of languages supported with full installers in OOo 3.3.0 with what we have in AOO 4.0.1. The following languages are missing in AOO 4.0.1
Not bad. At the time we were releasing languages that were 80% complete while we now require 100% completion, so 14 missing languages means that we managed to have full translations for most of the languages, not counting the new languages that are released or almost released.
And a few others are "almost complete": Norwegian (Bokmål) Hebrew Catalan Arabic
The picture I made in http://markmail.org/message/keap3twmumgsrfcy might be more accurate. Namely, we are not seeing a lot of activity in Catalan and Arabic, so we can involve more volunteers there.
So maybe we able notification for the remaining ones, which are: Bengali Catalan (Valencian) Estonian Irish Kurdish Macedonian Mongolian Norwegian (Nynorsk) Oromo Serbian (Latin)
Norwegian Nynorsk and Serbian Latin are on hold, meaning that we do have bilingual volunteers, but they preferred to focus on the other option (Norwegian Bokmal and Serbian Cyrillic) for the time being.
I realized we are assuming that users are able to read the English text at http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/eol-nl.html ; shall we maybe start with a smaller group of people who have a reasonable likelihood to understand English and see how it works? For example, we might start with Irish and Estonian users, or Irish, Estonian and Norwegian Nynorsk if we want to recruit some more people for the Norwegian team.
The reason for being careful is that (if I remember correctly, but this should be checked) the information that an update is available is cached somewhere in OpenOffice, so once we push the notification there's no way to withdraw it.
