I thought about it at one time, and I think the doc strings can be
translated very well using gettext-based procedures; I once submitted
a POT file to the translation project:

http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/registry.cgi?domain=python

Translating the library reference as such is more difficult, because
it can't be translated in small chunks very well.

Some group of French translators once translated everything for 1.5.2,
and that translation never got updated.

Martin
