It would be nice to have app translated to Russian :)

Thank you for your interest, but I will not be localizing this app. The reason 
for this is that Droidstack is built around the content found on StackOverflow 
& co. sites, which is 100% in English. Thus, localizing the app doesn't make 
sense. If a user doesn't speak English and can't read the labels on the 
buttons, I'm pretty sure he/she won't be able to understand the content found 
on the StackExchange, either.

Hmm.. The fact that all the sites are English based now doesn't mean that it is 
impossible to create a site with the StackOverflow API in i.e. Russian. I bet 
one day there will be such a site. Also like a Russian man I feel more 
comfortable with apps that have russian UI, even though I can use the site 
without translation.

I agree with Felix on this matter.

I'm a native French speaker but my English is at a sufficient level to 
understand the StackExchange sites so I'm not bothered to have the application 
in English. Actually my Desire is also configured in English only.

However, if ever you feel like translating Droidstack, I can help with the 
French version ;-) .
