I think a good solution can be a wiki-style documentation integrated in the main site:
- You (staff) create a page in english language. - Then somebody can translate the page (as a wiki page) with the same structure (the same number and order of titles, subtitles, paragraphs, etc. This check can be hardcoded in the website system) and save it. - It can't create a different page (i.e. about another subject if there isn't the english one). - If the transaltion is bad or something else, another person can edit it and save the changes. - If there are some translations for the english page then the site shows them, else nothing appears near the original one. - If you change the structure of the original english page (i.e. you add a paragraph) the translation become invalid and it disappears unless someone validates it (adding the translated paragraph). A similar example can be found on: http://book.cakephp.org/ Greetings P.S.1: if you've just read this email you know I'm not a good translator, sorry... :P P.S.2: I think the website needs a good graphic restyling as the documentation section.
