[...] we prepared Cura for translations. However, while translating to Dutch and German we already noticed that Cura is filled with 3D printer jargon which is English only.
So even the dutch translation was crappy. As I had no way to verify the other translations I disabled language selection for now, as I did not want to set false expectations.

The french law is nothing odd. That's actually a European guideline (adopted as law in most European countries, as the EU cannot set laws).
Which states that you should provide manuals in the native language of the country where you sell your product.
It is something we are working on. (As proved by the disabled translations of Cura) but we are short on manpower.

So it's not so much a "should we?", it's more a "should we do this now?"

In general people that are good at translating do not have the skill to setup git and send a pull request.

But the effort to get translations was done already. However, like I said, the result... I'm not that happy with it.
So this is a difficult thing. Should I provide crappy translations from the community, or no translations?

Also, by providing more language options, I will get bug reports in other languages, that I cannot handle.
