I am continually impressed with the tact and courtesy with which your dedicated OpenOffice staff responds to being yelled at from every direction. Somehow you manage to keep your cool, for the most part. And in spite of it all, you find time to improve an already-quality line of products Bless you.

This is widely repeated, but only partially true. We could package and distribute OpenOffice in more than 100 languages tomorrow (so to say; of course it would need some infrastructure work, but the translations are there). Swedish is at 95% in OpenOffice (which means 96% after the, now useless, TestTool strings are removed) and at 96% in LibreOffice, as one can find from the respective Pootle statistics. Of course, these numbers are not very significant since they should be taken at release time, but this is what I could find now. So, for the vast majority of languages, this is only a matter of release policy: so far, OpenOffice only releases translations where there are active volunteers who bring the translation to 100%. We already have a couple of volunteers working on Swedish, so I'm confident we can reach 100% and release 3.4.1 in Swedish in January. The recent post from Juergen at https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/apache_openoffice_reached_out_to is quite informative in this respect.
