Take a look at debianedu[1], I guess Ubuntu will be propagated
easily to Ubuntu if it gets packaged by or for Debian. On the other
hand, take a look at easy_install[2] so dependencies won't be an
issue, depending on the requirements of mekanimo it would be
relatevely easy to make it redistributable on any distro.

For now if you are using babel or something else to the
internationalization, let me know where the repo is and I will be
happy to help translating to spanish the app, or the website.


Fahreddın> You can download the application from www.mekanimo.net.

Fahreddın> If you try the application, I would appreciate your feedback about that too.
