Who is coordinating translation, in paticular, russian one? I would be nice to see the progress and where is newcomers can fit in. Dmitri 05:33, 23 February 2007 (CET)

There is already main SVN which probably will contain all the translations (I think it is no problem for OpenMoko team). I propose to create mailing list for translators (like Debian's debian-l10n-russian@ list), and wiki page "how to start translating", with the name of coordinator (do you want to be the coordinator? ;), mailing list name, translation rules and so on. MikhailGusarov 07:42, 23 February 2007 (CET)
For coordination - we just have to have a list of files to translate and status of them such as translated, in progress, to translate see the table below. It can be done by creating progress pages (such as Translation_ru for russian language) with list of all applications and status of translation.
The tools and commands how to retrive files for translation and submit translated version to the appropriate destination IMO should be on the top of the page - it would not take much space.
Maillist for each language, where is ppl willing to work, would be very helpfull. However, since all the translators able to read and write in english - we can use regular maillist for developers, or just one dedicated maillist for all translators.
Also I doubt nessesity to split wiki on language basis at present time.
