O.P. Happy  Domain Name and Languages
Hey everyone,

after 4 years of trying to get it, the msgplus.com domain is now mine! Visitors can now access msgplus.net through msgplus.com. Some things still need to be setup properly, however, the new domain name is already functional and will prevent some people to get confused.
Last year, some statistics regarding the translations used by Messenger Plus! were published. Those stats motivated some of you to promote Messenger Plus! in your native country and resulted in a very interesting "battle" between some translations :). Since then, things have changed quite a bit and I thought some of you may enjoy a refresh. Here are the latest statistics of use:

Language Name       Users-n   Users-%
-------------       -------   -------
English              1,306k    21.04%
French               1,250k    20.14%
Spanish (Latin)        686k    11.04%
Portuguese             647k    10.41%
Nederlands             629k    10.12%
Spanish (Spain)        501k     8.07%
Chinese Traditional    180k     2.90%
German                 150k     2.42%
Thai                   139k     2.25%
Turkish                121k     1.95%
Italian                 94k     1.51%
Hungarian               66k     1.06%
Swedish                 63k     1.01%
Finnish                 57k     0.92%
Arabic                  56k     0.90%
Chinese Simplified      49k     0.78%
Danish                  44k     0.71%
Norwegian               39k     0.62%
Japanese                37k     0.60%
Hebrew                  28k     0.45%
Korean                  23k     0.37%
Estonian                18k     0.30%

Greek                    7k     0.12%
Kurdish                  1k     0.02%


I'll soon post a new, very exciting news. Remember to check this forum again in a couple of days :).

Please don't start speculating about what the news could be. Nobody knows what it is, that's including beta testers, elite members or whatever.... So please don't spam this thread with vague rumours and stuff...
