Hi all,
     I was searching for a way to maintain a multilanguage version of 
some documentation and I found out that Sphinx (starting from version 
1.1) does support multilanguage using gettext.

Take a look here: http://sphinx.pocoo.org/latest/intl.html

I didn't know this feature and I think that is really really wonderful.

We could finally translate the plone developer manual (or any other 
plone doc) and most important we could maintain it syncronized between 
languages.

I am more than aware that this would be a huuuuuuuuge work (for the pdm 
there would be ~8.4k translation strings)...but I think that this would 
be also a great deal for Plone...maybe the greater for the sake of 
diffusion. :)

What do you think?

-Giacomo
