It's not that we belive we should translate everything.

I also don't see it as a dead issue. But as you mention, we are going in 
this route, because we have been unable to find any better route.

This is not just an issue with FarsiKDE, this is an issue with the whole 
Iranian IT industry, and indeed with the whole non-English speaking 
computer industry. 

The right attitude, as always is to find the balance. Here finding the 
balance means translating in such a manner that is underestood by most 
of the people, and is generaly accepted by everyone.
