Let me bring back some nice memories, setting high standards combined with short handed is not that good. This bring us back to "If a word is searchable by google then it has to be translated" and we went in circles! We decided on Onelook and the project took off to a state where it can be released. Leave few thousand words behind and they will always be behind. Wasn't that the case with version 0.5? > Again, if a words has a translation, then it's worth > it. ..Here we go again:) > I was thinking, why don't you work on the multiple > translation part, while I concentrate on new words?
