What I was thinking about was something in the lines of http://dev.gentoo.org/~swift/international.html (note: the links don't work, probably never will :) as main page for http://en.gentoo.org (I take this as an example because I assume all know English :) =46rom that main webpage, the visitor can reach the translated documentatio= n or a list of community websites.=20 Maintaining this is "easy": * new translations get added as they are now, + a newsitem on the site occurs explaining that there is a new translation=20 * new community sites are added to two pages: the one which lists=20 all community sites, and a link on the left of each page=20 + a newsitem on the site occurs explaining that there is a new community site That's all there is to it. Ofcourse, newsitems regarding new (translated) GWN's could be listed there too. Just an idea, ofcourse.
