here's what i know of now:

Malayalam (new) planned
svenska.tex     promissed
Danish          recently updated, maybe more coming

deutsch         you know about this one

portugues.tex   haven't seen reply yet
espanyol.tex    haven't seen reply yet
francaise.tex   haven't seen reply yet (but i guess
                 i can get an update, i'll try harder)

italiano.tex    recently updated
english.tex     up to date, stable
nederlands.tex  up to date, stable

I plan to visit a print shop one of these days, I plan to get (at least) en,
nl, de, fr printed in time for FOSDEM.

Bye,
