nice, but how to find those themes, which are

Do I have to install and try all 69 hits sequentially?

Good hint! It's not enough that the theme is gettexted. I should make
sure, that a translation actually exists.


I also considered the Sandbox theme, which is a solid foundation and
from this perspective good candidate for a WordPress default theme. It
is gettexted and "Skins" are a more lightweigth layout mechanism than
creating a whole theme. ... so far for the theory. Most style developers
prefer to create a whole new theme derived from Sandbox rather than
using the simple Skin mechanism.

And coming back to the original "Tellerrand"-issue: Where do I find a
good German translation of Sandbox? It's actually in Milan's list and I
find sandbox.pot in the Internet, but you pointed out, that translations
may vary in quality.

P.S. Milan, please excuse the "c", I didn't want to use UTF-8 just for a
single character. Alex is more lucky and I'm even 7-bit clean :-)
