well, with the debate raging about plans for the web interface and 
the importance of non-English stuff () it seems like a good time to 
bring up the idea of translating the sword website into (at minimum) 
appropriate languages, imho these would do for starters:

Important imho:
German
Chinese Traditional and Simplified
Thai
Russian
Arabic
Korean?

Other potentially useful imho:
Czech
Danish
Spanish
Finnish
French
Italian
Dutch
Vietnamese
others that there are modules for

after that in importance are other languages people would like to 
translate to.

On an English only website non-English modules won't be as useful as 
they could possibly be.

Just one wee problem. There is no procedure for translating the site 
yet, or core/essential bits of it set aside for translating. _If_ 
there is going to be a change to the website this should definitely 
be part of it (see www.bibletime.info for one way to do it ;) )

Do other people think this would be useful and do you think people 
would be willing to do the translation?

Regards,
Daniel
