This is reflective of a lot of open source projects translated here in
the Philippines. Since there is no immediate market, some consider it
as a novelty rather than a necessity. Probably because we are not
burdened with language that does not require a different kind of
encoding.

Some of the translations in Sugar came from me but I can't recall if I
committed it to FIL or TL. Most if not all FOSS projects with a local
translation are in TL.
