This is a question that is better asked on the mailman-i18n mailing list. That's where all the Internationalization folks should be hanging out.
I'd definitely vote for Pootle. It's free software, and gives you complete control of access, plus syncing with source control (including bzr, AFAIK). Its developers are extremely responsive to admin or user needs.
Hi Clytie, So would you recommend that we run our own Pootle server or use one of the public Pootle servers that already exist. The former is problematic since we don't really have the resources or machines to host such a server. I looked at the official Pootle server documentation and while they list a few projects that they host, they don't appear to have formal published policy about how they accept new projects. I would guess that they'd be likely to accept a GPL'd project like Mailman. The other listed public Pootle servers seem to be focused on particular projects, so I'm not sure there's a different existing service that would host us. We would need some mechanisms and policy for ensuring that translators who contribute to Mailman all have the necessary FSF copyright assignments. We want to avoid getting in situations where some languages aren't assigned and others are. I'd like to have some ability for cross-project pollination. The idea being that it's good to have Vietnamese experts who contribute to lots of open source projects, and can learn about Mailman, with an easy way to share translations across projects. I don't know if that's a typical way translators work though, or if they would find it a benefit to have such a system. Sync'ing from Bazaar would be very cool! Do any other translators have additional comments? - -Barry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkfq/mkACgkQ2YZpQepbvXG+XACeMnD+bvw5CqzNfNX5+iMGzdHY fbIAoIlt6HnbqBe9vWTDPhLcqPn0df8z =zqRN -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
