Thanks, that must have been quite an effort!! Few questions:

1. How did you extract the strings exactly?
2. Property NAMES should not be translated as they are used internally by INDI. Property LABELS can be translated though.
3. Many strings are quite technical and would be immensly difficult to translate without proper context.
4. Many INDI drivers (e.g. 3rd party) are not included here, and due to the nature of INDI itself (dynamic introspection of drivers as they come), such strings would never get translated.
5. How would this list be maintained? 
6. Any proposals for enabling i18n in libindi itself?
