I've speak frankly to you and in main koha list: my goal is to adopt
koha from now (1.2.1) in my office of my organization (a nonprofit one,
for disabled children), and push the adoption of 1.4.X for all the
organization offices in italy, localizing that.

You're in right, but i think that this can be accomplished only if can
be found a (illuminated ;) commercial sw house in italy that can
actively support and localize koha, making money with support (as katipo
do, i think).
As a user i can contribute the translation of the manual, of the
program but really not support for other, or handling a it.koha.org
website.
I've just my business... ;-)))
