Hi David, great to meet you.

I don't have much info to contribute, other than to say that Drupal (the CMS 
we use for the LedgerSMB website) does have an i18n module available which 
provides the ability for us to have multiple translations for each page, so 
that we could support translations of various parts of the website into 
various languages if we install the internationalization module ( 
http://drupal.org/project/i18n ).

As for whether we should support this, I would vote yes, I think it would be 
great for building the community. I think there would have to be an 
understanding however that most contributors at this stage are 
English-speaking, so people would have to accept that the translations may be 
inaccurate or out of date. Even so, I would think that having localised 
translations would make things a lot easier to get started with for many.
