Use the language packs http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Localization/LanguagePacks

I'm not sure how to enable translations for this - I will try to come
up with a similar languagepack mechanism for SOAS.

Sugar-jhbuild should start working once you start committing the files.

There is a localegen command on Debian which you can try. Let me know
if you are unable, I'll try to hunt out the exact steps.

I added you as the temporary admin - you can give admin priviledges to
others if you want :-). You should also see a commit button now - for
all projects except for Fructose. For Fructose (which is totally
untranslated at the moment), you can download PO files from
Fructose0.84 and upload them in Fructose (I have just enabled the
upload feature)

Thanks,
