TK's suggestion is a good one.  If you'd like to translate the
manpages themselves and commit that to the source tree, that's also a
great idea.  However, I don't have the first idea how one would go
about doing so, so you'd have to figure that out.

We're also open to translation of the applications themselves.  There
is some support for this built into teh C code (it uses gettext),
although the new perl is not yet localized.  Again, if you know how to
fix this, I'm more than happy to commit the necessary equipment.
