[Ala-portal] translation tool

[Tim Robertson [GBIF]]

Hi all,

I am very happy to let you know that GBIF have been granted a free license for CrowdIn as we qualify for their criteria as an open source endeavour.  I propose we continue with the project we set up as a test “ALA Internationalization” which is no longer blocked.

As we present the internationalisation aspects of the project, please include an acknowledgement to CrowdIn in slides / tweets etc. CrowdIn have also kindly offered to provide helpdesk should we have any questions.

Many thanks,
Tim
