You should also consider translatewiki (translatewiki.org). It's used for a number of very large projects (MediaWiki and extensions used on Wikimedia sites, OpenStreetMap, etc), and it has a large and active translator community. For example, MediaWiki is very actively translated in 100 languages, and has translation for roughly 350 languages total. The translatewiki people are interested in hosting OpenStack since Wikimedia Foundation is using OpenStack products, and translatewiki cares deeply about our language support. In fact, they were the first people to complain about nova's broken utf8 support, which prompted us to push in fixes. - Ryan _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
