I guess so... I must admit i've been offline most of the summer and i
did not follow the various translating. This is one of the thing that
need to be improved.

Yes that'd be perfect. This more or less how the ubuntu's full circle
magazine works. AFAIK it's the only open-source community-driven
magazine that has 4 or 5 active translations teams. But despite that the
various teams don't work at the same speed and frequency.

So for now i don't want to put to much pressure on the guys translating
pg_mag. Especially i think it's not a big problem if there a few months
delay between the orginal and the translated versions.
