Hi Justin,

I am from Austria, and I would like to help. I could provide a German
translation. The Babelfish's translation is really funny. Machine
translation is readable, but it is no advocacy. ;-) I do not really nead an
interface, but just tell me in what way you want the texts.

Best Regards,
Michael Paesold
