The software exists, written in Ada. One of the reasons why I stopped
working on Latejami is that the basic design algorithms were becoming
too complex because I didn't anticipate some of the problems I would
eventually run into. A complete redesign is needed (which will also
require some morphological changes to the langauge).
You can judge the quality of the software yourselves - the English
translations of all of the dictionary examples and all of the lesson
examples and drills are the unedited output of the translation software.
It's not fair to compare translation software for Latejami-to-English
vs. natlang-to-English. Latejami syntax is simple, precise, and without
exception, and Latejami morphology is totally regular. Because of this,
software to parse and analyze Latejami is much, much simpler than for
any natural language. For example, the Latejami parser is short, simple
and 100% accurate. The equivalent software for a natural language would
be incredibly complex and fraught with error.
