But it's not in jbovlaste. I think the whole list or = at least a good
part has been translated to French too, but again, it ha= sn't been
loaded to jbovlaste.

This is why I believe it would be good to have multiple levels of access permissions on jbovlaste. One would allow the proposal of new official lujvo, another would allow mere translation for those who don't feel ready to contribute new lujvo. As Wikipedia has demonstrated, allowing mass involvement creates a positive feedback loop. As people contribute more, no matter their level of ability, they feel more invested and start to learn more. As they learn more, they contribute more both in quantity and quality.
