# WordPress language packs and version checking

Stephen Edgar has written a post on checking the version of WordPress for translators.
It’s a procedure that is set for being improved but for the time being translators
need to be careful.

The make/polyglots blog is interesting reading; translating a software platform 
like WordPress is not a trivial thing.
