Yes. In fact, the Spanish-speaking community is very strong, and 
leading the internationalization efforts together with the Japanese.

The Etoy subsystem (the kids environment) has had translations for 
years. If you try the projects at
	http://squeakland.org/kids/kidshome.html
you will find a language button in the navigation bar. (Hopefully the 
browser plugin will work, I haven't looked at it for a while - feel 
free to report problems to me).

The next Squeak release (3.7, currently in beta) has official support 
for translating the whole UI, and translations exist for various 
languages.

One community effort was the translation of the Squeakers DVD 
(http://www.squeakersfilm.org/), this revised edition will be available 
soon. It contains subtitles in 12 languages, see
