Since Serbian latin is only transliteration of Serbian cyrillic and 
they're both "piši kao što govoriš", there is a simple sed script that 
could convert the translations from cyrillic to latinic.  So IMHO this 
is for the best - it's no use of having two trees for essentially the 
same translations.

I don't know what the situation with the Uzbek cyrillic is, but it might 
be different in the sense that there's entire different writing system 
for cyrillic and latin (like leaving English names in latin for latin 
and converting them to their pronounciations in cyrillic).  Mashrab, is 
that so?
