If you go to http://www.osgeo.org you will now see a "Select

tools are pretty simple, if you press a language the content will
change, but only if that content has been translated already. All
default content is in US English.
I just had a look at the French and Deutsch translations of the
home page and they don't seem to match exactly the contents of the
English version. I can't read Deutsch, but the sections of the page
seem different, and the French version (which I can read)
definitely contains different contents.
Should it not be a requirement that the translations should match
the original as closely as possible in order to relay a consistent
message in all languages?
Yes, that was the intent with offering translation abilities. You
are welcome to help fix French if possible.
I'll continue the discussion on the WebCom mailing list.
