Let me disagree. Hungarian is not in the same group by far, and the results make it possible to understand more than 50% of the text (sometimes I'd say above 90%). While this is far from proper translation it is by no means _useless_, since its obvious use is to understand a completely foreign text to some extents. And I'd like to second that the quality has been really improving, whether the state of the art linguistic science backs its theory up or not. This is observation, and not theory. But I see this is an exaggeration contest, so I'll go back to the shadow. :-) grin _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
