Josh's notion of a Google-like "more >" is fairly appealing, as long as it
is consistent across as many *.sugarlabs.org sites as possible.  As for
ranking exactly which belong "above the fold", I'm guessing that "people"
doesn't get a lot of click-through, I suspect that when used, it is
deep-linked.  Do you have Google Analytics or something else keeping
web-stats on page navigation?

I'm biased in favor of "translate" as I try to contribute to the
localization community (or translation team) and it strikes me that putting
"translate" in the linkbar could help drive potential localizers to the
Pootle server, which would be nice.
