That've been done on porpouse, till the site is translated in one or
more languages.

Visiting German pages should result in a warning message like this:

  Page is currently subjected to an heavy reconstruction.  Thus,
  translation may be innacurate, lacking, or completely missing.
  Please, refer to the original.

but I forgot to add it to lib/i18n.wml... sorry.

True, I'm wondering why... not hard to fix it, though.

True again, but:

1. I wanted to release a version so that others can start translating.
2. I don't know exactly where to put them... any idea?

This is a bit harder... but I'll do it.

Actually, I'm using a fixed font... not really cool move, I know.  I
already wanted to review *.css files and make them W3C compliant.


Let put it this way: site is ready to be translated (i.e., no message
will change), but we can wait for making it publicly available till I
fix those bugs, if you prefer.
