Dear Allin,
I like your proposal. Additionally, I would like to make some
suggestions:
1. It would be nice if Gretl home page automatically recognizes
the country from where the site is accessed (like google.com
does);
That would be cool, agreed. But it would put an extra premium on the
up-to-dateness of the translated pages. I think we can assume that
the Google translations are almost always in perfect sync!
2. Instead of http://gretl.sourceforge.net/gretl_portugues.html, we
could use a shorter URL like gretl.sourceforge.net/br (or pt, or es,
etc.) or even gretl.com/br.
Names such as "gretl_portugues.html" are rather verbose, yes. I'd be
happy to rename these files as "pt.html", "es.html" and so on. And
note that sf.net is an acceptable synonym for sourceforge.net, so
you'd have
gretl.sf.net/pt.html
(and br.html could be a symlink to pt.html if you like). However,
I'm not going to buy gretl.com! (If someone else wants to, that's
fine by me.)
