Finally, no more [Sourceforge nonsense](http://sourceforge.net/projects/monolingual?ref=chrismessina.me)... [Monolingual 1.3.7](http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/?ref=chrismessina.me) has added support for [Sparkle](http://andymatuschak.org/pages/sparkle?ref=chrismessina.me)! Combined with [AppZapper](http://appzapper.com/?ref=chrismessina.me) and [Xslimmer](http://www.xslimmer.com/?ref=chrismessina.me), Monolingual is a great way to keep your system light and free from superfluous language files that can take up hundreds of megabytes... What I'd really like to see, though, is these three apps get together to come up with a blacklist feature to protect sensitive apps that don't like to be messed with. I know that Xslimmer is doing something like this -- now to get AppZapper and Monolingual to sign on!
