Localized versions of CodeProject
-
StackOverflow rolled out recently Portuguese versions of its question asking/answering platform: http://pt.stackoverflow.com/ and http://br.stackoverflow.com/. I know several Spanish developers that are willing to push for a Spanish version of StackOverflow. Are localized versions of CodeProject in the horizon? CodeProject is one of the oldest article platforms in the web but all the articles are in English. Although you might think one won't get by as a developer if she/he can't read/write n English, most users feel more comfortable consuming content in their own language.

This has been already spoken some times and, as fas as I know, it has always been rejected. If CP starts supporting a language, then all user of other languages will start complaining about. On the other hand... CP already has a massive number of spammers, if the spam links were hidden in articles of other languages, the number of potential reporters would decrease a lot, because they can not understand the content to know if it is spam or not. I come from spain and my english is not the best, but although it would be more confortable for me to read in spanish, I think it is a bad idea and my vote is against it.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.
