1) I had an email from the Mozilla drivers saying they're fine with a
Shavian translation, and they'll host it as an addon, but they don't want to
upstream it because the choice would confuse people.  This seems fair
enough.

2) I have a tool called Sparkle which can transliterate text files or .po
files; I will be extending it to handle Mozilla's formats as well.  I will
release it sometime soon, because I feel it could be useful to other people.

3) I may also package up the Shavian rules for the Firefox transliterator
addon.
