Here’s to keep you updated on what I’ve been up to lately. I have been pretty
busy getting translated versions of the web site up online for our non English-
speaking users. Our team of translators has been stunningly efficient in
translating pages in many different languages, including Russian, French,
Dutch, German, and more to come, such as Danish, Italian, Spanish
and Portuguese. Many thanks go to them.
At first, the way things were handled is that users’ browser language
preferences were taken into account to serve them the ‘most suitable’ version
of the web site. It soon enough proved to not be a very effective way of
offering multilingual pages. That’s why as of yesterday, the translated pages
are only accessible via the links that are present at the top of each page.
Everything should now default back to English in any case.
Sorry about the temporary inconvenience that some of you may have experienced
over the past two weeks. Thanks.
