Hey all,  
I use globalize intern translation like this:

class Media \< ActiveRecord::Base  
self.keep\_translations\_in\_model = true  
translates :name, :base\_as\_default =\> true  
end

and I use it for several models. Is there a globalize function that  
returns all the translated fields of a given model?  
Also, is there a function that returns the array of all the defined  
language in environment.rb?

thanx in advance
