The official Ruby language website is now available in English,  
Japanese, Korean, Polish and Spanish. There are more translation  
initiatives going on, and soon we will have Brazilian Portuguese,  
Chinese, Czech, French, German, Norwegian and Russian versions.

Congratulations to all translation teams for the hard work!

Michel

Yes, and the fact that they’ve had to commit to keeping this stuff  
up-to-date is impressive.

Isn’t there a convention on the Web that alternate languages are  
signposted very near the top of the page, so they are seen first?  
[OT: Don’t most languages read downwards, even those that traditionally  
scan vertically fastest?]

I don’t think this is much of an issue, since the site redirects  
users to the proper language based on their browser settings.

I’d like to contribute to the Brazilian Portuguese translation. If you  
are part of that effort, please contact me through this mailbox:

Cheers,

Oh, didn’t notice that for obvious reasons. Nice idea.
