Hi Aside of the actual translations being done... Can someone confirm that german umlauts and more or less exotic characters should work within the mail templates? Or shall i write a bug report? Peter

They have free accounts for open source projects. It might be a nice way to organize a translation community.
It's likely that we don't have to organize one, we already have one. Barry, why don't you try to get in touch with that Vietnamese lady and see what she thinks?
Right, that would be Clytie, CC'd here. However, it's been a while since we've heard from her.
There are also active translation communities at Debian and Launchpad, and I would assume at Red Hat/Fedora. Both Deb and Ubuntu are happy Mailman users, and I would guess Red Hat/Fedora, too. All probably would find some of the MM3 features very attractive for their own use.
Definitely, and I've looked at all of the various translation services, mostly from the point of view of a project manager non-translator. E.g. how would I push updates into the service, how would I pull updates from the service, etc. I think I have a fairly good sense of what will work and what will cause headaches. I think I've posted to mailman-i18n@ before about my thoughts there. I'm CC'ing that list here too.
But in some sense, it's more important for the translators to feel comfortable and welcome in whatever system we chose. Most are non-technical, so I think it's easier for us to make project workflow conform to a great translation system's quirks (and there *will* be quirks ;) than for them to work around pain in a translation system that easily integrates with our workflow.
One question I have, and Steve, you're probably a great person to weigh in on this: what requirements does the GPLv3+ and being a GNU project place on us?
Cheers, -Barry
