Thank you for thinking about it. And we had discussed it in vim-jp (you know, it is Japanese vim users and developers community). The discussion was held in Japanese, but I reveal its URL for reference.
https://github.com/vim-jp/issues/issues/364 > How about keeping the previous ja.po as ja.euc-jp.po? Probably there are no needs. In this decade, in Japan, EUC-JP is being replaced by UTF-8 on lot of UNIX like systems. > I assume there are still people using euc-jp. We must assume there are still people using gettext without iconv. It depends on gettext(libintl) that UTF-8 version ja.po works properly on EUC-JP systems. And GNU gettext "de facto standard" uses iconv in over this ten years. I speculate there are no or very very very few people using gettext without iconv. > It can be converted from ja.po with iconv.

I'll write it. 2013/5/20 Bram Moolenaar <[email protected]>: > > Taro Muraoka wrote: > >> I have updated Japanese translations for Vim 7.4. >> Please use attached archive for 7.4. >> It based on recent 7.3.969. >> >> This includes two changes. >> >> 1.
