Just a question of curiosity, what dictionaries, corpuses or linguistic
tools in general are you going to use in localization to Latin as a target
language?

In the past, I was provided with some Recent Latin resource
consisting of examples of computer terminology, I'm also aware of Roman
Curia (or should I say Curia romana) publishing a lexicon for "modern
terms" from time to time, but personally I somehow doubt that it'd enough
for localization of something as extensive and as "technical" as GNOME.
