The main section of the site (ie product information, support pages etc.) will be manually translated either through pootle or directly on the site. If there is a page which does not have a native translation yet it will display in english and allow the user to offer a translation directly on the site if authorised as a translator. To summarise we will be maintaining the integrity and quality of all of the 'important' content while allowing cross-language communication in real time for community discussions. I envisage that this should break down a lot of barriers for people getting involved in the project. What are your thoughts on the subject?
