What do you call an out-of-date translation? If Dave Fetter submits PWN
today, is the site displayed completely in english tomorrow because we
couldn't find a translator?

Debian handles this nicely: if the original is newer than the
translation, they just display it in english and tell you that there's
an outdated translation which you may want to check.

To be honest I had been hoping this feature was going to be available on
the new site. At least that's what I told the people in Cuba: there is
no need to translate the site right now because we're going to migrate,
so lets hold off until the new site is deployed. Oh well :-(

I guess we'll have to concentrate our efforts in the postgresql.org.es
site.
