Re: [Translation-i18n] gettext with non-en source language



in the gettext doc to do like this. English and American are the world's most understood languages nowadays and for the next decades, not Czech, German, Spanish or whatever. It is short-sighted to start a fresh project
with user interface strings in any other language than English.

In the next decades and starting very soon, the world's most understood languages will be Chinese and Hindi, and especially those two will have a huge influence on the IT world. And only the people who don't read Chinese on Hindi are blind to that.

It is very short sighted to not take that into account.
