Building multilingual projects in Drupal: tales from the road.

Wouter Heyse 4 July 2010
Type:  Not planned session

Straight from Brussels, Europe's ultimate linguistic mosh pit, we share our experiences in supporting multilingual projects. We discuss the pitfalls, ditches, roadblocks and punctures that riddles the path
to finalization.

Straight from Brussels, Europe's ultimate linguistic mosh pit, we share our experiences in supporting multilingual projects. As most of our clients require support for at least Dutch, English and French, we are committed to implement multiple languages as swiftly and seamlessly as possible. Needless to say, this is not easy to accomplish.

Multilingual support can be all too quickly formulated in the requirements document (a mere 'support multiple languages' generally does the trick).

Translation Management for the Enterprise

Amir Helzer 3 June 2010
Type:  Session in official program

A new Translation Management module makes it easy to run large multilingual sites. Inspired by expensive commercial tools and scaled to fit inside Drupal.

Drupal has the technical infrastructure for running multilingual sites. Knowing the ins and outs of the system and configuration, however, is not a trivial task.

Building scalable translation workflows that fit your organization's needs is even harder. How can you run a truly multilingual site with Drupal without going insane or broke?

The new Translation Management module is how. Built as a wrapper on top of Drupal's core translation tools and the i18n module, the Translation Management module is a new effort to automate or streamline the entire process.
