[jifty-devel] jifty l10n and stuff

[Daniel McBrearty]

thanks - that's pretty interesting because l10n is a big part of my site
(which is looking for a framework) - I'm quite interested in participating
who are serious about putting together a really transparent system. I'm no
expert in the field, but I do have some ideas about how it should work to
throw in. engoi.com is pretty good test ground for something like that.(it
is currently in 8 languages, with about 12 more in the pipeline - there are
more than 20 volunteer translators involved. RTL languages are a problem at
the moment, as is timestamping of entries so that material which needs
revision can be easily found ... there is a lot to do ...)

I just went through the tutorial without too much pain - all well and good,
though there there is some stuff that's not that clear. I know that jifty is
still a fairly young creature, so there are bound to be some rough edges,
but I like the way you have tried to keep it lean and mean as possible. The
db schema generation looks good.

I wasn't too sure what the admin mode was about - it's basically a crud
interface on teh db? that makes some sense. How are sessions handled in
jifty at the moment?

I'll prolly get back with lots more q's later ...

cheers

Daniel
