The data submission phase for CLDR 1.8 should be closed by now (although the survey tool still says it’s accepting submissions). For Dutch (nl_NL), I’ve been going over quite some items together with the Apple contributor and someone else, so expect quite some improvements on that area. The current release date is aimed at somewhere in March 2010.
I spent the past three days doing a lot of coding for my Dutch-Japanese dictionary site Rangaku (or better known as Kouyou). I am happy to see that things are finally starting to pull together now. I had intended to publish things much sooner, but I had a lot of catching up to do on the Python front. Partially thanks to my new job and my own endeavours in my spare time I am mastering Python at least on a level I feel I am reasonably comfortable with it. Of course, the release of various tools like Werkzeug, Genshi or SQLAlchemy helped me a lot as well.
