Hi Masaki,

Thanks very much for taking this work on top of your busy daily routine 
responsibilities, it's good to see we are making some progress here.

I'd like to echo what Masaki mentioned in his email by encouraging 
people to create your accounts on launchpad.net and try the tool for 
your languages. We can work together to set up a new process, not ideal, 
but might be the best we can have.

Thanks everyone for your participation,
Paul
