Once you've done it properly for one language, all you need to do is add 
in more translations.

Doing thefirst one you can do at any point in the project, but you might 
make your end result more i18n-friendly if you do it that way from the 
start..

Umm, yeah, Five has some docs, *waves hands in air* ummm...

...yeah, this stuff isn't really documented coherently in one place.

Philipp's Zope 3 book isn't a bad place to start, though, since nowadays 
you really want to be using Zope 3's i18n via Five in Zope 2 rather than 
any of the horrific existing i18n solutions for Zope 2.

cheers,

Chris
