Translation module

This module allow to maintain translation of node content to different languages and switch between them.

Functionality of this module partially intersect with i18n.module, but translation module offer slightly different paradigm: switch between translations of one node, instead of switching language of all site. Not so powerfull as i18n features, but simplier for installation and maintaining. IMO, translation module will more convenient for sites, where only parts of content or certain nodes are multilanguage, for sites where most or ever all the content is multilanguage -- more reasons to use i18n.module.

Translation module stay with Drupal's interface language switching and simply place links to alternative languages below each node, which has multilanguage content (see screenshots). When you create node, you may to choice with which language you will fill it. Later, you may to add translations of this node to another languages, and they will appears as usual nodes (feature: you may link different node types as translations). Users will see flags (or links) to languages of node and by clicking them just see another node with content translation. Settings of interface language of user don't play role here.

For installation place translation.module to you modules dir and execute appropriate translation.*sql (member about prefixes!) for data structure creation.

Module still in beta stage, though user interface work and tested. Administration page uncompleted.
