Done.  If you check out JobBoardI18n in your lib/python/ZopeProducts
directory, then change your products.zcml file to point to

    <include package='ZopeProducts.JobBoardI18n' file='configure.zcml' />

instead, you'll get the i18n'd job board.  There's an English
translation and a Bablefish-assisted Italian translation.  I leave it
to you to decide which translation is better. ;)

Note to any native Italian speakers out there: feel free to improve
the Italian translations in JobBoardI18n/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/jobboard.po!

Guido and Stephan, feel free to add Dutch and German translations.

I'll start working on the Tutorial.html later.

Let me know if you have any trouble.  I had to blow away my Data.fs
file, which had the old JobBoardEx example, before I could create a
new JobBoardI18n example.

Cheers,
