+1 here! May I suggest using Transifex? That way you could crowdsource translation not only to Spanish but to other languages. Some documentation is available here:

I know nothing about RPython nor PyPy internals, but from what I gather about the patch it could be handled through gettext .PO files, right? 2. I do have an account at Transifex and volunteer at the Coursera Global Translator community, In fact, Coursera is translating an introductory Python course: https://www.coursera.org/course/interactivepython1 Regards, 2015-05-04 5:05 GMT-05:00 Carl Friedrich Bolz <cfb...@gmx.de>: > Hi Laura, > > Thanks for kicking this off.
