#43.

The English strings are (mostly) in lib/simplelang/lang-en.js. You can
use that as an example for the other languages.

Let me know if you need any more help please.

I will start translating into Italian and Esperanto.

Don't you want to make your app translatable via Transifex [1]?

I have considered creating some scripts to allow extracting the strings
so that I can use Transifex. I haven't had time though.

I like using my library, because it works on all platforms nicely and
allows easy localization from javascript.

@minego Would it possible to add some context information to the respective files then?
As translator, knowing some limitations (character space et al.) and context (button, panel etc) is really helpful in getting the job done.

Yes, the translations are stored in a javascript file so it wouldn't be too difficult to add comments when there are questions. I'll try to do that if I can find some time. If there are specific ones you have questions about please ask here.
