Are there linguistic specialists, in Ubiquity team ? I guess internationalization will bring a lot of theoretical problems, and working with linguists may help a lot modelization and therefore implementation...
But I have to say I don't really understand how would an internationalized Ubiquity work. Does it mean you'd be able to type either a chinese, french, or english command, and ubiquity would detect which syntax analyzer is applicable ? And what if I want to use a command developed by an english guy, and pipe it with a command developed by a german one ? Are you plainly sure going for internationalization first is the right choice ? Maybe, but AFAIK you'll need strong linguistics knowledge to achieve this...
