Hi all,

this has been discussed on the list at least a couple of times, and the 
answer has been that wait for the support to come. Now my question is - 
what can I, and what can we do now to help future releases of CMF to be 
translatated automaticly from the tar package?

Is there - for example a way to contribute now to a database for 
different phrases and items that are on the basic CMF skins and sent 
back as portal status messages etc. If not, should this be started?

I've been now doing some translation work in a couple of projects, where 
  parts of the interface have been translated to finnish. It would be 
nice if I could share my translations with others and possibly improve 
them over time, so that when the support is ready - we would have the 
possibility to get CMF instantly on our customer's preferred language, 
wether it is english, german, swedish, finnish or swahili.

Or is it too early to do it now? How could I help?
