Moxie, it's probably pointless to do it now, but right before or soon after Whisper is finished, you need to set-up some crowdsourcing of language localization for Whisper. Doesn't have to be anything complicated. Just arrange all the text nicely in a txt file and let people download it and then upload the file for a certain language.

I think localization could give a great boost to Whisper in countries where English isn't the native language or that well known, and it doesn't cost you much to do this. But as I said, it's probably best to just wait until Whisper is finished, if it's coming out this year.
