As Russell said, this is probably a bad time, but I thought I'd throw
in some quick notes nonetheless.

> '''django-modeltranslation''': I think this general approach is the way to go

I agree that it's probably the best alternative available currently,
but still not without significant drawbacks (like breaking when fields/
fieldsets are used in the ModelAdmin, and not being able to
transparently query on translated fields - an issue you later
mentioned). We're running a severely hacked private version/fork of
django-modeltranslation in production, having added fields/fieldsets
and some custom jQuery/CSS admin widgetry, but in no form that would
be ready for public consumption, let alone as a basis for inclusion in
Django core.

Also, I was about to say that the development of django-
modeltranslation seems essentially stalled, but then checked to see
that the first update since March (support for admin inlines) was made
three days ago, so scratch that ;-)

However. I'm in the conceptual planning stages of a fresh solution to
the model translation problem, one that I hesitate to say anything
more about at this time since the ideas involved are not yet fully
formed in my head. When Django 1.2 hits bugfix-only mode, I'll
probably start tracking trunk and doing some initial prototyping
against it. If it amounts to anything, you'll hear more about it next
spring, hopefully around the timeframe that Russ talked about (3-4
months or so). Absolutely, positively no promises, though.
Procrastinating endlessly and losing motivation altogether are a
distinct possibility :-). But still, if and when the discussion pops
up again later on, I might have some ideas and/or code to share.

Until then.
