Well, to be fair, it started as the home for the core team, before they vanished into thin air.

I wouldn't consider myself to be part of that team; more like a random fan who's desperate to see the project wrapped up, and knows just enough to be able to run build scripts, but not much more. There's not a whole lot I can do, besides be a cheerleader for new translators.

Given the choice, I'd much rather see the core team finish this up ... but given that the last beta (r78) shipped in July 2009, you can understand why I'm skeptical of that ever happening. So I'm just doing what I can.

Or, to be blunt: if this was a stalled-out open source project, it would've been long since forked by another team, finished, and released as a completed rough edit/beta. I don't know the etiquette of how that works with fan translations (or what sort of drama that would entail), but that's definitely how it works for open source code.
