Me neither. So many things to do, so little time... Personally, I'd care
(also) about a situation like a clear typo or two in source strings, 4-8
completed translations, and still no bug report in Bugzilla... That was
encountered by me on several modules. Not very impressive though.

Hmm, how's that? As I read, there are about 80 millions French native
speakers around the world. And only about 5 among all of them volunteer to
translate GNOME? Interestingly, with c. 12 millions of native speakers, we
have 7-8 regular translators in the Czech team. Still, we've significantly
less translated modules.

Time matters for everyone, you know...

No doubt about that. :-)
