I have uploaded the source code for a new Plone add-on that provides
support for content in multiple languages:

   https://github.com/collective/collective.multilingual

It's an alternative to plone.multilingual and its related packages and
basically provides the same functionality.

The main motivation was to have a simple architecture that benefits
from Plone's new content type framework. It's a maintainable, tested,
easy to understand codebase.

For instance, we use Dexterity's built-in add- and edit forms, without
any customization. This is possible because of the pluggable
architecture of the underlying forms library, z3c.form. It made it
trivial to implement a feature such as language-independent values.

Note that we don't – and can't – provide support for Archetypes.

Finally, the add-on does not currently provide any translation aids
such as integration with Google translate or the like. I'd like to see
such features added, but it's also important that there's a reasonable
control on what the add-on should provide out of the box.

Thanks,

\malthe
