sorry, I didn't explained why:

We are not sure, whether the drop down list can be implemented into the 
wiki (I will have to research this), so I suggested to include 
the "classical" language selector as well.
However, given the growing number of wikis, we would prefer the 
drop-down list.

jdd already mentioned it - there are two proposals: one with a three 
column layout (draft_home.png) and one with a two column layout 
(draft_content.png).

Almost everybody complained about this so far, so this definitely needs 
improvement.

Currently there is no HTML version available, and creating a png with 
bigger fonts will prove nothing ;-)). But, yes, Robert is aware of the 
fact that the design has to be scalable.
