[OPEN-ILS-DEV] Evergreen translation Web site (beta)

[Betty Ing]

Dan,

It's a great idea! Perhaps you could include some guidelines for
translation as well. For example, obtaining the names of languages in
other languages is more of a copy-and-paste procedure using a
repository rather than actual translation. For non-professional
translators, this would be a very useful piece of information, at least
until there is a programmatic solution.

Any other tips from translators would also be helpful.
