You need to have your inventory translated as well as your search and
listing GUIs.

How many pages does your current system have in a single language?  25
or more?

Those can be internationalized and your translators can key in the
text in the language of choice.

But the results of the query will need to hit a normalized environment
where the property descriptions have multiple rows by language.

You have a great deal of work to accomplish because not only GUI
changes have to be made but data normalization as well.  You then need
a Work-Order system for the translators so they know what is just in
and has not been translated as of yet.

I have do the internationalization thing before but our data 90% dates
and quantities.  It was shipping so the user scanned the barcode and
it found who the order was for.  The user just had to box it and send
it down the line.  We were just associating tracking data by box to
the order.   I had it easy and you don't!

Write this yourself.  You will need to identify what is done and it is
all in XML anyway.  the Translators keep adding more content to what
is already there.

Have a translator "approve" a page after the conversion.  Sometimes
the labels in English are short and in another language they are long.
 This is the hardest thing to track!
