Hi!

This is the PO statistics for Debian packages, not website translations. To
fix the list, packages need to be fixed - translations for "spoken in"
merged with the language were natural. (Like "nb_NO" merged with "nb".)

The unknown languages are plain bugs, I think - for example bos_XX" caused
by wrong filenames in the language directory of the software - see
https://codeberg.org/boswars/boswars/src/branch/master/languages (The file
"bos-de.po" should be named just "de.po" for example.)

Sorry if all of this was clear for everyone.

Regards, Hans
