May I want to translate Siteseed to another language?

Sure... all strings are isolated in the code and it´s really easy to do. If you want to donate your work to the project we will be glad to incorporate it. But you can also license it under your own terms (in which case it will _NOT_ get incorporated into Siteseed: only BSD licensed material gets into Siteseed).

We reveived already translations to:

German (Marcus Schweiker - marcus@schweiker.net)

French (Roméo VIU-BERGES - ApostleDemencia@aol.com)

English (Mr Net staff - code@mrnet.pt)

Portuguese (Mr Net staff - code@mrnet.pt)

These are now integrated in the main package. If you find errors in a certain translation send them in to code@mrnet.pt and we will forward it to the person handling the language).

Check the file TRANSLATORS included in the Siteseed archive.
