Star Trek taught us that "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few (or the one)".
The Charlotte Observer reminds us just how unrealistic that statement is in real life. I cannot count how many times I have heard stories like this one, stories that illustrate just how badly we need to pay more attention to Star Trek.
With the gracious help of Ricardo Gonzalez, the Bloglines Toolkit now offers a Spanish translation! I also cleaned up a couple of little things in the package, like giving credit to the translation authors for their work and some mislocated data. If you're using the auto-update feature, you should be prompted in the near future about this new version being available. You can also download it from the link below.
The real question now becomes: How should I handle the version numbers, when the only change is to add a language? For those happily using an existing language (for instance, English), they will be prompted for a new version, and can download it and install it and everything, but there is no real benefit to them in doing so.
Meanwhile, someone who uses English but would prefer Spanish would (I think) be happy to find that they now had an option available. I'd suspect that the former would be more numerous than the latter, but what do I know? I think I'll probably just keep incrementing the version number each time a new language comes out. That way, even people who don't monitor this blog will know, and be able to upgrade - they can always visit to check and see about the changes.
