It was linked from the translation interface tutorial, but I've added another separate link as well. Thanks!

How does a new language get added to the list of supported languages? I'd love to work on a Bulgarian translation, but there isn't currently a community working on it.

Unfortunately, we're not adding any new translations to LiveJournal at this time; we might eventually, but I don't see it happening in the near future. Sorry. :-/

Dear lj-creators!
The info-page of this community says: "No new translations are being added to LiveJournal at this time."
I was just wondering whether this situation is permanent? I mean - would you mind one more translation to appear?
The thing is, I would really like to create one more translation of the livejournal's interface - to the Belarusian Latin alphabet. It's not exactly a whole ther language, but rather an orthography, using middle-european latin alphabet instead of cyrillic alphabet (Belarusian Cyrillic translation already exists).
My greatest respect and thanks to you if you let me do this, cause Belarusian Latin orthography(though not official and supported as Belarusian Cyrillic orthography) nowadays is still used by quite a number of Belarusians both here in Belarus and among those Belarusian emigrants and their descendants living in abroad. I can't but mention that the usage of latin alphabet is an undoubtfully traditional and historical thing for our country (as well as for Poland, and Czech).
Such translation will increase the amount of lj-users among Belarusians and also decrease the existing antagonism between the two language groups(latin- and cyrillic- orthography users).

Sincerelly yours, Kojpiš Anton

Hi, there's an Estonian team on the translating teams list, and apparently, the translation is 0,07% done, but there's no community to join to actually translate, not are there any translators listed on this list.
Anyone know what I should do, if I want to translate?
