Hi Ali,

by all means put them into a 'work in progress' area on the wiki for the
time being. As we get used to Mallard we will have a better idea of how
much documentation we can put onto the ISO's without them going over-sized
for CD. I'm not too sure yet how the translations are implemented in
Mallard, but I'm pretty sure that each full translation will use up
something like the amount required for, e.g. English.

Regards,

Phill.
