Catbo is a free computer-assisted translation web service, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-assisted_translation|CAT]]; it is designed to help a human translator to translate documentation and other texts. Automatic machine translation systems available today like Google Translate are not able to produce high-quality translations. Catbo has full support for texts in the HTML and XHTML formats. To make sure Catbo is a high quality and a modern product just look at the project [[http://cat.bombono.org/project/HTML5-enru/|HTML5_enru]] which aims to translate the latest [[http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/|HTML5 specification]] into [[http://cat.bombono.org/c/html5/ru/|Russian]]. Our next goal is to support wikipedia/mediawiki format, pdf and so on (odt/docx/xml/docbook/rst/...). Every Catbo user may help to translate documents. Moreover, we the Catbo developers encourage users to participate in making translations in a ''wiki'' manner. Join our forum at [[http://forum.bombono.org|forum.bombono.org]], where you can ask questions about Catbo and discuss your projects. So, you are welcome to try Catbo!
