We will contact people on #i18n and try to commit our translations soon.

I have dowloaded and tested some of this translations...

I think there is a mistake in statistic generation script because most
of gnome-* translations have only fuzzy and almost NO translated
entries.

For example evolution(51%) has max 1-2% translated entries. Fuzzy
strings are automaticaly pre-translated and ~95% not usable because very
bad "dictionary" was used.

Me and Vladimer are using kbabel and we have a lot of similar fuzzy
auto-translatied entries but they are at least 30% usable for
translators :)

OK... i just want to say that we can't use translations from
gakartuleba.sapikhvno.org :(
