[Phpmyadmin-devel] Incomplete translations in release

[Tyron Madlener]

Marc seems to have a good point. What if you ship all translation
above ~10-20% but notify the user about its incompletion (everything
below 80% translated or so?) when he changes the language in the
phpmyadmin settings? Some simple AJAX Message would suffice.

Maybe there is a way to extract the completion progress from
https://l10n.cihar.com/projects/phpmyadmin/ and warn/notify the user
about its completion status and write that translation help is always
welcome?

People that use incomplete translations might give them an additional
motivation boost to participate in the translation (release early,
release often).
