It appears that you were looking at HEAD, not 2.14. And all figures are different. For instance, GNOME 2.14 is 99,86% translated into Russian.
Ah, yes, I figured comparisons from their HEAD to our HEAD would be most meaningful, although I'm sure it could be argued differently...
Translation of GNOME into Russian happens this way: closer to release we start bugging translators with requests for updates. As for 2.14, we also announced local gnome-cyr(illic) Love Day and managed to get even more new and updated translations. There is no such day for Inkscape :)
Overall, translation process looks close, if not equal: some translators use SVN on daily basis and send updates periodically, some use releases only and therefore do updates after strings freeze.
Since Inkscape's strings freeze is already announced for 2 weeks or so, comparison should rather be made to GNOME 2.14 than to HEAD ;)
