Is there any sort of target goal/date (I know MARC/z39.50 "completeness" is coming along soon -- what a fantastic tool that is! thanks!!!) for getting a new version packaged, and are any translation issues for the database for the new format expected?
Regarding translation. Despite living in a bilingual country, translation isn't my forte (note the use of french there. :) Translation isn't really required for the database, it's required for the interface. Ideally, every string that is displayed to the user should be sent to a gettext() call that looks up a translation to the user's preferred language, if one is available. This is no small undertaking even before any translations are done. I know that _I_ won't be doing it for this release. Steve.
