Just to be explicit about it, here is an example where I only knew the
French words for Croatian and French. The translators will take care
of everything else:
        fr => {
                finnish    => "finnish",
                croatian   => "croate",
                english    => "english",
                danish     => "danish",
                french     => "fran<E7>ais",
                german     => "german",
                italian    => "italian",
                japanese   => "japanese",
        },

Go ahead and add them. There is no harm in adding languages that aren't
yet used in our section of the web site.

Additionally, if you need anything new implemented, discuss it with us.
It only makes sense for us to share these resources. No point in having
translators duplicate work.
