Hi

Ever since we launched Ask Fedora, I have had ambassadors and other
contributors ask me repeatedly about multi language support and it looks we
can finally enable it

For a working demo from the staging instance, refer to

https://ask.stg.fedoraproject.org/eo/questions/

However enabling it for all languages doesn't make sense with having
language specific communities moderating and managing that part of Ask
Fedora actively.
So if you want support for your native tongue enabled in Ask Fedora and you
are an ambassador or translator etc willing to be a moderator in the forum
for your language, please let me know or post to the Fedora infrastructure
list.  If already have askbot deployed in your local language, we can look
into migrating that data over as well if you wish to do so.

Note that askbot upstream considers multi language support as experimental
and there are some rough edges as described at

http://askbot.org/en/question/12111/improving-multi-language-support/

We will probably find other issues as we deploy it and work with upstream
to get it fixed.  Thank you for your patience.

Rahul
