I have to agree with PeterE here ... even 15% shows that we are *attempting* to 
accommodate other languages ... which would hopefully act as encouragement for 
others to submit translations ...

If you expect someone to sit down and translate 85% of the web site into a 
language before we consider it useful, it will never get done ... if we accept 
"one page at a time" so that ppl see their work / effort is being made use of, 
then its less daunting of a project, and more ppl will hopefully get involved
