Currently on low availability, so I won't be able to review in depth in the next few weeks. Overall it looks like a solid start, but we'll need a proficient human in the loop (preferrably translation owners/engaged translators who were involved in the process) to fine-tune it under the assumptions made during the translation process so far.
Quick example - currently some of the technical terms allow "or in English", even though in practice we tried to avoid it.
I will take a look when I'm back to full stance, in the meanwhile tagging the people who might be able to help.
