In a Moodle User meeting here in Finland we talked about the possibility of translating strings directly from the user interface. Short texts are sometimes hard to translate without the user interface context. Locating the spots where the text is used can be cumbersome. Some web application have the option of translating strings "on the fly": when you see a screen with untranslated information, you could go into "translation mode" and then click on a string to translate it. Ajax could handle this quite unobtrusively, but it would require that the output functions produce the exact name and module of the string (as html tag attributes for example) that the Ajax translation functions can use. These extra strings make the pages heavier so they should be produced only in the "translation mode". --[[User:Samuli Karevaara|Samuli Karevaara]] 01:28, 29 April 2008 (CDT)

== Community translation ==
 
Would it be possible for the project to add a community translation? That means somebody translates part of the interface, some other translates other part, changes are submitted, some "editor" or "reviewer" accepts, or corrects, the translation, which is incorporated to local. People could offer alternative translations, accepted, or not, by reviewers. And all this translated pack is available to the public. Changes to the original (English) package should be noted by the system. Is this within the scope of this project?
