I think we should have a 1.0.1 release before making
this really public. The es-ES.strings file is
completely broken in 1.0.0. /No/ Spanish-language
strings are visible whatsoever; the entire AbiWord
user interface is in English for Spanish-speaking
users. I take responsibly for this one; it would not
have happened if Rui did not commit the Spanish
strings we translated on this list at the 11th hour.
I have already sent a bilingual [1] email to the
abiword-user list explaining how to fix this problem.
The fixed es-ES.strings file is here:

In terms of making decisions, I really think the
benevelent dictator approach works best for tough
decisions like "What Unicode representation should we
use internally"; "What is our release schedule"; and
"What scripting language should the program use".
