Hopefully some other languages can continue the translation as well and we can think about a language only release where I am a big fan of to support local communities.
But in general we have discussed it and I would have not released German (my mother language) if the UI translation would have been not complete. Just to make sure that we need active local communities who participate in the project or at least in the translation part. It would be even better if the help would be translated as well but that is a much higher burden and we are more flexible here.
