It's too big. More than 100,000 strings. It needs a dedicated team of 
highly skilled technical translators. I once initiated a project to 
translate it, but it fell down because no one signed up. Next, a couple 
of ex-Corel Iranian developers decided to translate it, that project 
also never went trough.

Right now I don't know of <em>anyone</em> <quote>who helps with other 
internationalization projects</quote>.
