i18n support

[dmantula]

This great theme definitely needs internationalization.

I like how the language selection with a dropdown is done here , although the implementation (see the source code here) is pretty inelegant and would work only for the landing page. Also, language names might be replaced by flags or 2-letter abbreviations, and "Other languages" might be replaced by currently active language flag/abbreviation.

The implementation would require a long-running pull request and joint efforts for:

• i18n:
  • extract all the strings
  • fix the link referencing
  • change the configuration file format for the landing page, with backward compatibility
  • adopt the UI for RTL support (optional at the first steps)
• l10n:
  • add localization for a minimal set of languages

To proceed with that, I would ask the community if some efforts have already been put into it, and if any pitfalls have been found with that.

Also, I would like to know who else would contribute.

I second this request. It will be a great addition.
