Yes, off the top of my head there were translations for other languages
which had not been imported into Launchpad, that is, the translations
had been done on the XML files but not converted to PO files.

These translations live in the branches here:

  https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu-desktop-course

And it would be interesting for the members of the translation and
training communities to review them and import them, as it is quite
difficult for those who don't speak each one of the languages to do it.
I'd be happy to assist them in that. Here is the original announcement
for some more background:

I'd be happy to help on this! :)

Thanks for looking into this, Kyle.

Looking forward to all of your comments.
