  1. i’m looking for this information too.
    for now i have found this links useful:
    wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bogo/
    wordpress.org/extend/plugins/admin-in-english/

    oh, finaly. this plugsin solves my problem:
    Kau-Boy’s Backend Localization
    just install it trough the Plugin Manager
    or from here:
    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/kau-boys-backend-localization/
    and then default wordpress language – will be in the front-end
    back-end language you can set in plugin settings.
    p.s. for full multi-language support you can use wpml.org

  2. all this plugins didn’t effect as i wanted, so i created my own plugin.

    available here:
    one-backend-language (working with 3.0)

    Lets you choose your Backend Language for your complete Backend, also if your Frontend is using another Language (including Multisite).
    You can choose from any language you installed. For a list of availible languages, check “WordPress_in_Your_Language” or create your own files.
