 The translation of Gnome glossary is in progress, but you can get
translated po file from

 Right now I have three testbeds,  RH 7.2 with ximian gnome snapshots,
Redhat 7.3.93 beta (limbo) this has pango indic xft support & is used
by default. already a third beta (null) is out started downloading
that. A LFS setup, with gnome 2 compiled.
