[seul-edu] Translators for schoolforge

[Felipe Bergo <bergo@seul.org>]

We aim to have the schollforge site translated to as much languages as 
possible, and I am currently working on the storage of the translated 
documents under the database. As far as the press releases go, things 
seem to be working. So...

schoolf=> select name, codlang, email||'.ham' from translators
schoolf=> order by name;
       name        | codlang |                 ?column?

[I know russian is missing on the second table, I'm waiting a reply from 
Roman]

There's no problem having more than one translator for a given language, 
but our main objective is to have translators for languages not yet 
covered.

For those willing to apply, relevant information is:

- name ,email, language, what charset satisfies your language,
  what is your language's name in your language (e.g.:
  Espa\~nol is Spanish in Spanish)

Those can be emailed straight to me, there shouldn't be much to be
translated - about one text the size of that initial press release per
month, plus translation of the site contents, but those are only going to
be translated once we decide on a final form; I'd say it should be 
happening by early february, but that's a guess.

Once we have something to be translated, we'll email the translators in 
the database.

Regards,
