interesting ... but what if changes something, even trivial, to the
source page? Does this invalidate the whole page? The answer seems to be
yes... if this is it ... thanks but no thanks! I would prefer some bunch
of .po files instead that be forced to revise the pages to translate for
differences with the originals...

The method in place of Pelican seems to be primitive at best: fallbacks
of entire pages and not only of sentences, no handling of "fuzzy" or
trivially translatable strings, no single translation file or catalogs,
no support for web translation services with output of .po gettext
files...

When there will be a "manageable" i18n system in place, I will be
available for translation of the site in Italian. So I'll keep an eye on
this site/project but... not for now, sorry!

Best regards,
