Translating the whole BBS is SO MUCH WORK!  I definitely have respect for anyone who goes to the trouble to do it fully.  It's great that Maximus has multilanguage support in its core functions, but that leaves menus and every ANSI screen etc etc.  And then what about names and descriptions of message and file areas.

I'd love to see more multilingual BBSes, though I do understand why many haven't been able to do so.
