Hi,
When going to module -> translate now ->, then an option 'auto translate' can be found between source string and translation field. Clicking 'auto translate' button will fill the translation field.
Where is this translation coming from? Does re-using this auto translation affect any copyright?
Thanks noriko

From Google API.

It is for academic use only. Cannot be used to translate commercial applications. There is no clear ToS or translation copyright. API itself is LGPLed.

Yuri, thank you for the information! This warns me to be careful for using this function. What you think, transifex team? Should I bring this up and ask for clarification to Legal team?

I have posted the question at Legal at lists. http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/legal/2011-May/001619.html

Under such conditions, is it necessary for the functionality to be made available ?
