The choice of basing the translation of either the wiki or web page is, 
of course, up to the native language teams. The question was mostly to 
the teams who would like to base their choice on the web page -- some of 
the teams may not have the time to learn SilverStripe and may find it 
easier to copy the html code directly into their pages and translate. 
Then we can all share in tweaking the pages and feedback. I am also 
hoping that this will free some time for the teams to put together 
localized images rather than have EN images as examples.

As for the code freeze and all, yes the vast majority of information is 
available from the wiki as of code freeze. I am not sure if we can push 
the dev team to complete it earlier -- that is something that would need 
to be asked.

Cheers,

Marc
