I'm interesting in multi - language support for Gallery. I think its not so difficult to do. I do it myself, but I must do it every time, when i upgrade it. It just take my time. I'll be thankful if you do that. Because then multi - language support for Gallery will be standart for this Open Source project. Thank's.

We're writing G2 from the ground up with multi language support. We won't retrofit G1 with it, though -- too much effort for too little reward.

Why do you use gettext?

Most servers do not support gettext, I guess.
I can not use ML-gallery because of gettext.

How about PHP-nuke style language file?

Gettext is a full featured internationalization library. It's fast and effective. Instead of using a slower, inferior system I'd rather we push ISPs to support a better toolkit. That, and the system that PostNuke uses is not nearly as flexible as gettext which leads to imperfect translations.
