Hoi, I am happy to have an additional problem with the current status quo. Happy because I have a solution as well.
As a consequence of the temporary halt of software going life, the localisations have been waiting to go life for the same amount of time and we at translatewiki.net <http://translatewiki.net>regularly get the question, when are we going to see the fruit of our labour. We even find people not returning to translatewiki.net because of the gap in time that currently exists. To alleviate this problem, I have asked Tom Maaswinkel to write an extension, LocalisationUpdate, that will import the messages in a wiki. The process has been discussed with Brion and Siebrand, I have been testing it for some time now and it will definetlt benefit the quality of our localisation and the quantity of our localisation when it is implemented on all the Wikimedia Foundation projects. I would really love to have this code reviewed as soon as possible and implemented as soon as feasible.
