- There is no reason to limit the number of languages supported by the application. This is what happens when LANGUAGES is set during Django configuration. Users should be able to set a language using browser preferences and see at least the Django translated messages even if Plinth messages are not translated (example user create/edit form). - If we wish to limit the number of language options shown duing language selection (for quality perception reasons), we should perform the limiting at the time of configuration. - Note that when a new language is requested in translation tool, we create an empty file and that may lead to language being shown but with few strings actually translated. This will have poor impact on user experience. I wonder if we should filter language at all, keeping this in mind.
Plinth
Plinth - a web front end for administering FreedomBox
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
Plinth is a web interface to administer the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking from Plinth. Plinth also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about Plinth on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
