Yes, I got kicked in the teeth there as well.

Try again, their admins are getting better at responding, maybe cc me 
("akerbeltz", as usual) - it took us a while too, they don't bar anyone 
as far as I know, they're just short of admins I think.

Best as I can tell, it's a bit like Apple and Hawai'ian. If someone high 
in your language community happens to have a relative or good friend in 
the right place, you've got a way in. Or if Google has a physical office 
in a place and you manage to get a government official to to twist the 
arm of the right people. I think that's how Irish got back in, Google 
has offices in Dublin...

I pretty much consider Apple and Google lost causes unless we get some 
kind of pan-EU digital language rights bill that forces them to at least 
open up localization to community translation efforts.
