Hi Thiago,
We haven't quite figured out how to handle pathways in languages other than English. Ideally, it would be in a way similar to how the mediawiki infrastructure handles internationalization of article pages. If I recall, you helped us by added the Portuguese versions of help, right? Regardless, We don't have this system in place for pathways yet. It would likely involve internationalization efforts from the datasources and for our own titles and labels, etc.
Until we have away to organize and navigate by language, this pathway would not make it into the Curated Set. We had decided early on to focus on English-language pathway curation. But since we have Curation Tags, I'm fine with a compromise where we can keep the pathway live here and accessible by direct links, search, download and web services; but not accessible in the default Curated Set or Featured Set. We may even have to tag it as a Stub to note the continued work required to properly support the pathway.
Does that work for you? Other suggestions?

Also, if you were to make an English version of the same pathway, then that one could be included in the Curated Set and you could link the two via hyperlinks in the Description of each pathway. This would be a way to "fake" an internationalization feature until it's implemented. Of course, this would also double your curation and upkeep load, so....

Dear Thiago, I'm sorry that I had to change the title, removing the non-ASCII character. It seems to break the pathway export.
