Need help translating Clockwork Language Packs
Clockwork is designed to allow multilingual content to be presented "on the fly". Part of this functionality is handled through the use of .net RESX files. We should create ready-made language packs and a script to help install them.
Volunteers would need to know:
1) The .NET Resource file (.resx) and CultureInfo model
2) Be able to translate a set of English labels into a language of
their choice
Time Commitment:
This is likely to be low - we will come up with a set of standard
English labels, put them in an XML file, then you can translate
them, and submit the Resource file(s) as a patch for us to test
before we add it to the trunk.
There is a related Powershell project discussion, and n that project we will create a powershell install script to add language packs.
Additionally, it would be helpful to create a database-driven ResourceManager to allow dynamic labels to be created. If anyone is interested this would be a project in its own right.
If you are interested, please email me or reply to this thread.

Nick,
I can translate it to Portuguese (Brazil). Just need some time to become familiar with the framework. The Resource Manager sounds interesting to me but I am not sure I'll have the time to do something decent.
Thanks!

Thanks to our volunteers, Clockwork pages are now in English, French, Portuguese, and Arabic!
