Actually I was planning on doing a Tibetan translation of MPlayer
messages at some point, just for the fun of it. :)

There's maybe not much demand right now however in Bhutan (where a
language that might as well be a dialect of Tibetan is used) there's a
lot of free software translation effort underway (and government
demand for native language to be used on computers) and I imagine they
could use it.

Sorry, don't know any other langs well enough to do translations.
