[guardian-dev] added new translations to play store!

[Mark Belinsky]

I'm letting our transifex translators know about the update. They've really
been working hard this last month, with 21,118 words translated. That's up
from 10,036 in May. Great to see the enthusiasm around the world!

Re:
1) the title field isn't included in the translations
Should we do this? It seems that the title is the hardest thing to change.
It should perhaps be imported from the app code itself, since it's not
something we can leave up to volunteer translators as easily.
2) the What's New/Recent Changes section is not translated for any
How fast do these change? My concern is that we would have faster
turnaround in app updates than translators could get to. But if we want to
have backlog update transparency, it could be a good thing.
3) the translations could use a good review, they seem to vary a lot in
quality
Truth. But what do you mean exactly? Layout/verbage/errors/trolling?
