Sorry about letting this report wander, I'll try to wind it down. I'll look at the translation packs later in the week, which should tell me what I need to know in order to discuss things usefully - I'm more interested in the quantity of data and distributions of words, rather than the database model itself. If there's significant interest from linguists, I might ask you for old/orphaned text later on.

I'd be interested in collaborating on fuzzy merging, although as a user I'd be more interested in an approach that could suggest translations of specific technical terms, as well as possible matches for whole strings. That sort of thing shouldn't be too hard to do by analysing frequencies of different words. Where would be a better place to talk about this stuff?
