I dunno if this is interesting to y'all, or if you have an opinions, but if any of you are familiar with programming as a non-native English speaking person and you have an opinion on whether PyPI should be translated, and if so how it should be translated and where we should draw the line for what we support, https://mail.python.org/pipermail/psf-community... needs input :]

dstufft: I think I'm in the "don't bother" camp. Are lots of people asking for it?
dstufft
pdurbin: As far as I know, nobody has ever explicitly asked for PyPI to be translated due to their own need. Unsure if that means nobody needs/wants it or nobody who needs/wants it can figure out how to contact us to ask... if I was presented a page in zh-cn (the 2nd highes tlangauge that is accessing PyPI) I'm pretty sure I'd have a hard time figuring out how to contact them to ask, so amybe they'd have a hard time too... but I really
don't know. I have no experience here :]

dstufft: I'm like you. monolingual, basically (sadly) so I don't have a lot of perspective on it. But PyPI is afterall a programmer thing and English seems pretty important to know in this field.

pdurbin: yea, you won't make it super far I don't think without English, but perhaps it'd be helpful for beginners who are learning *shrug*. I've put out some feelers and we'll see what happens. Currently unless someone comes up with a really compelling case we're going to continue to use L20n, and if nobody translates it (or nobody seems to be using it) then we'll just rip it out :D
