Congratulations to the Tamil team on their progress! :)

I have found these update reports to be really fascinating, a look  
behind the scenes of the different language projects.

Could we perhaps maintain a wiki page that summarized current status  
for each project?

Or perhaps link from Rafaella's new stats page:

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Translation_Statistics

each language name being a link that leads to a separate page, in  
English, briefly summarizing the current status of each project?

Quite apart from general interest, I think there would be people who  
don't speak the local language, but could want to know the status of  
localization of OOo for that language: business networks, educational  
and other development organizations, and our l10n and NLP co- 
ordinators. ;)
