Why not use "TAF" as an 'honorable mention'? :)
French l10n team is one of the most active (together
with ca/es/nl). They already use it, we could use it too, it
is not hard to learn. :) I should say that we can add an
alternative option, use NEW or TAF, but there is no reason,
could be anything, and with the pseudo-urls explanation, it
is easy to use and understand (and keep our "hacker spirit of
fun").

I exchange some e-mails with Tim, and probably I
will send some messages asking for help and tests on -i18n.
And probably I will also talk with Martin Quinson to ask
some ideas. :)

My idea is get it integrated, as I mention in another
message, using differente backends and generating the XHTML,
probably using some clean and easy to maintain CSS styles.
First idea was migrate it to PHP (using some code from
Tim) but I figured out that a great part of software is already
written in perl. So, "hands on", learn some perl, and working
on it, I believe in two (or three, because of Free
Software International Forum - FISL) weeks, we will have a
"stable" beta bot. :)

That's a good "add-on". :-)
Probably, when we get the bot working, we should
advice all teams to adopt QA and pseudo-urls system.

News for me. But interesting... :-)

Ahmm... trying to do it in small steps, but I

Yes, probably when it gets ready, we should "merge"
it in debian.org and get some l10n pages talking about this
inside www structure, in other words, migrate from wiki. :)

Nice, I will check to add it to the l10nbot. :)
