Re: New getfedora website is now live, you can still translate it

GNU Project handles this in an interesting way (IMHO): they won't
recognize translations of their licenses as official and having legal
value, but they MAY link the unofficial translations with the intent
of helping users to understand the license' content, provided that the
translated license meets some conditions, like stating it is an
unofficial translation and only the English translation has legal
value. More info in https://www.gnu.org/licenses/translations.html

Maybe something similar (e.g. saying the translation is just for
helping understanding, but only English version has legal value) could
be used.

Cheers,
Rafael Fontenelle
