Askbot, the software behind Ask Fedora does support I18N directly so we can handle it all in a single instance in ask.fp.o. I have also confirmed with Red Hat legal that any kind of question and answer is ok and since it is user generated content, can be treated like users mailing list. So that isn't a problem either. Askbot itself is fully localized in many languages and they even switched over to using Transifex recently based on my recommendation. The reason why I haven't enabled it is because currently all languages have a single view (ie) if I ask a question in English and ask another in Spanish, it will be in a single page. That is messy and confusing. What we need is support for subforums or split views and perhaps per language administrators etc. I have requested this upstream and they have committed to working on it but I have other higher priority bug fixes and feature requests (ie) things that would affect everyone regardless of the language. If you have a compelling reason to run your own instance, Askbot and dependencies are available in Fedora 15+ and EPEL 6 and I have documentation on setting it up as a README within the package and at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ask_Fedora_SOP We have done the packaging carefully with input from upstream and Fedora infrastructure team members so that it is easy to get started and run multiple instances from a single package. My recommendation however is to wait it out a bit and I will look into getting different language communities within the single forum instance. That would reduce the administrative burden and has the value of not splintering the community of people who are interested in troubleshooting issues, sharing knowledge and helping users. Hope that answers you. Rahul -- marketing mailing list marketing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing
