Keeping on the roll of the posts about the repo split, templates, and metadata, Software Carpentry now needs to consider how to handle translated lessons. The core Software Carpentry lessons have be translated by bilingual instructors into Korean produced by Victor KC Lee (and friends) and Spanish by Francisco Navarro (and friends). With the upcoming repo split, I think its a good time to examine the various options of how we might handle translations generally.

As an appendix to the splitting the repository post, Greg recently posted a straw man template for how lessons might be structured after the repo split. He followed up after with more details. There a lot of good ideas there on how we can encourage good structure for lessons and help learners and instructors alike going forward.
