[Tikiwiki-users] multilingual community building. First test: a Tiki forum in French

[Marc L. <ti...@ma...>]

Hi!

One day soon, we want to have information available in many languages.
Xoops, Postnuke, etc have several linguistic communities.

To the difference of postnuke, xoops, etc, I would like to keep =
everything
very centralized. Possibly using categories within tikiwiki.org or using
subdomains (fr.tikiwiki.org, sp.tikiwiki.org, etc)

Why centralized?

I want users to only have to login once and participate in many =
languages. I
want tikiwiki.org to be well ranked. And I want it to be easy to find =
stuff.

Dealing with many languages on one site is more common. This will be a =
good
dogfood test. Ex.: We will eventually want the possibility to restrict
searches within a language.

For more information and to join the effort:
http://tikiwiki.org/MultilingualDev

So first test: a forum in French:
http://tikiwiki.org/forum7

If you would like a forum in another language, just email me offlist.

What do you think?


Thanks!!

M ;-)
