[geeklog-devel] CrowdTranslation-LANG array mapping

[Benjamin Talic]

Hi all,

I want to thank you for all the ideas I got. And for the patiance with this
project.
Some work on it has been done. If you are interested I have published it
here:
http://summergeeek.blogspot.com/2013/06/big-decisions.html
And will shortly update the wiki page:
http://wiki.geeklog.net/index.php/Crowdsourcing_Translations

Again thank you,
Ben
