Given that Savannah’s web interface is traslated partially (at least to several languages, e. g. to Russian and German, where even the main navigation bar is only half-translated), lack of language switch is pretty annoying.

I can, of course, use some client-side workaround to set preferred laguages on per-site basis, like Quick Locale Switcher extension [0] for Firefox; but I wonder, Savannah is so abandoned that even request for a basic feature could be only closed as WONTFIX?

Hello, Bob!

You can manually change browser preferences; Savannah website
itself has no parallel means to set language.

Is it possible to set a Savannah website language manually?

It's not always useful to have an interface language just automatically selected according to browser preferences.
