I propose:

Divifund

Divifund is a personal finance program. You can design personal budgets,
track your expenditures and see how much money you need to have saved in
order to meet your financial obligations.

It's written in python and makes extensive use of libglade and the
python-gnome and pygtk bindings.

Platform I guess. I just think it's a generally useful program most
families and people need.

The current website is for "myBudget" A new website is under
construction and will be available soon.

There is extensive English documentation. The code is fully localized as
far as I know. 

No doubt there is more work that could be done for accessibility and
usability although I persoanlly find it the useful persoanl finacial
program available.
