Does anyone have a comprehensive list of the languages to which Gregg was adapted?

The Gregg Group was founded 22 May 2004, prompted by the lack of online shorthand resources. As the primary use for shorthand — business and legal recording — has waned in recent decades, we generally acclaim the skill as a hobby or personal tool. The purpose of the group is to promote the use of Gregg systems of shorthand by providing advice to beginners, support for students, and an association of users of this efficient, attractive, and enjoyable method of writing.

I don't know of a comprehensive list. Gregg was adapted to Spanish and used in Latin America. I believe that Spanish textbooks may still exist. It was adapted to German, but lost out to native systems, the important ones being Deutsche Einheitskurzschrift in Germany and Austria, and Stolze-Schrey in Switzerland.
Hope this helps, Ed Jahn
The "Price List of Gregg Publications" (May 1, 1948) lists the following: Afrikaans (Gregg Stenographie) Esperanto French Irish (Luathscribhinn Gregg) Italian Japanese (Nippon-Gregg Sokki) Polish Portuguese Russian Spanish Tagalog (Takigrapyang Gregg Sa Wikang Tagalog) Don't know if that's comprehensive or not, but it's what was available at that time.
