Internationalization #68

Django supports multiple translations of the UI elements and instructions. Would be great to carry through with this, as many of the users are non English speakers. Once the mechanism is in place it should be possible to recruit people to carry out the actual translation

I've actually included this as an action item for the WSU to carry out on Seabirds.net. Part of some of the next work will be searching for resources to be able to fund this. I'll be trying to keep on top of this and will keep you informed here

Excellent. The hooks needed to do it are supported by django ...

This also would potentially take into consideration timezone support.

Translations of user-created content is another idea, but slightly more involved than just translating the static UI text.
