a relatively high-level decision about internationalisation
needs to be made, I think.

I wonder perhaps whether we should not host
distinct  "TEI en francais", "TEI per i Italiani",
"Ein Deutsches TEI" etc sites in some way (possibly using wikis),
and not attempt mechanistic translation of the
main site menus etc. So leave the main site in English,
but ask local experts to contribute to pages
of useful hints for their locality, with links
back to the main web site. Of course, these sites
could be maintained elsewhere if need be, but to have
the formally recommended starting point
for French etc speakers could be nice.

Just thinking aloud, and pondering how maintaining
parallel versions of anything is very very hard.
