Currently the list includes many languages that, as far as I can tell,
do not actually have available translations. For example, it includes 17
varieties of English, when in reality Ubuntu Touch ships with only the
three that Launchpad offers for translation -- en_AU, en_CA, and en_GB.
<https://launchpad.net/~/+editlanguages> (Plus en@shaw, which I've
reported bug 1455917 for.)
I suspect this is because Ubuntu is showing a list of locales rather
than actual languages, and many locales share languages. Is that
correct? Andreea Pirvu and I are working on the assumption that it is,
and that we can separate out the choice of locale into its own step. If
you have allowed location detection, possibly the step will be
automatic, or at least the default can be based on your location. Either
way, that would shorten the list of "languages" from 100 entries to
about 50.
