I received an email from someone wanting to translate the MUSHclient home page into the Belorussian language and asking for my permission. I responded as follows but the email bounced <sigh> so I repeat my response here, as it could apply to others wondering the same thing:




You are welcome to translate it. I should point out that the client contents themselves are designed for internationalization, see:

http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=7953

In particular there is a text file you can edit to change a lot of the internal messages into another language. Also if you are keen you could change the menus and dialogs if you have access to a resource editor.

Quote:

All we ask is to link back in whatever way you feel confident about it.


My only condition is that the page is a reasonably faithful translation of the contents and spirit of the original page. For example, no advertisements or links to inappropriate sites.




To expand on that, if anyone wants to notify me of a page that mentions MUSHclient translated into a different language, I am happy to put a link to it, provided the translation seems reasonable (I can check with Google Translate) and that the site being linked to does not appear to be just a portal for advertising or other non-relevant things.

How specific was the email? Could be spam.

Looks like you are right. If you Google:


I'm willing to translate page located Belorussian language


... it looks like he is willing to translate quite a few pages!
