Hey, I work on the Esperanto version of CV. You are right, many languages should be bigger than Esperanto, and we never planned to become this big, it just happened. We are around ten active people and a telegram group with a few hundred motivated donors. Plus, we write about the project in Esperanto magazines and talk about it on Esperanto congresses.

The point is: the only reason Bengali Korean and Malayalam are stuck "in progress" is that no one is working on them. No language but English is actively supported by Mozilla, it all comes from the communities. And the success of Esperanto shows that every language can make it. I hope that people take our work as a motivation. Every language can become big if a few motivated people work on it for a year or two. Even the smallest language can make it. You just need a lot of public domain sentences, a few thousand donors and some technical knowledge then your language will grow as well :)

Sure, I was responding to the factitious comment above.

When I can use Google or Facebook in any of these languages for 10+ years, it's silly of this project to claim some high moral ground when you can't support some of the most widely spoken languages in the world and stick to languages that hipsters in San Francisco think is cool.

It can support those languages, they just need some people who actually speak them to come along and make it happen. If you can help, I'm sure it will be appreciated.
