An Untranslated Items portlet for Plone

In conjunction with my recent experiments with I18N and Plone, I've also developed a helpful portlet for identifying "untranslated" documents. This script provides a simple guide for any translators in your content management workflow to identify new documents to translate. I'd prefer calling this portlet a recipe, not a complete product -- you'll likely have to modify it for your specific needs.

See Plone and Internationalization for the genesis of this project. This script should be created as a Page Template in plone_skins/custom/portlet_untranslated. Then, in your Zope Management Interface's root properties, add here/portlet_untranslated/macros/portlet to either your left_slot or right_slot.
