That would be awesome, though I'm not sure what degree of work would be required. I know that Django supports translations and localizations, but we'd need to go back over the whole project and build it in. That itself wouldn't be too much work, I'm not sure how providing the actual translations works.

The initial change would be some work to get all strings into variables and language file containings the definitions (a lot of text is re-used here though so might not be too bad) but after that its nothing more than a definition file for each language and a setting for which language you want to use and a default for the provided en-US.

I can start doing the documentation all the readme files you got on this github project. The actual is code could be more complicated and will take longer but, is a start!

If you can, is it possible to get an account on https://www.transifex.com/ ? they offer projects for free to open source programs/teams. This one will help gather the strings and other things you guys mentioned. The foreman uses this and it works great! https://www.transifex.com/foreman/foreman/ I'll start working at least on the Spanish part.

Our documentation is still experiencing a high degree of flux and non-existence, so I'd discourage any translation efforts in the near future. Probably something to re-evaluate in a month or so.
