Thanks all for the input to this concept. I just wanted to clarify a couple of points:
1. Localisation teams will still exist in an ecosystem along side the development, design, marketing groups. All communications in these groups will be in native languages, but others can also contribute to them using auto-translations. Not ideal, but we don't have enough translators to get them to translate every conversation on the site. 2. As mentioned before the main site will be structured the same way for all languages. English is not the default translate to-from language, it is the simply the fallback if a translation is not available. ie. if someone in china accesses a page originally written in french with no other translations available it will display in french. If an english translation is available it will display in english. If there is a chinese translation available it will display in chinese. In terms of the Q&A section, I would expect that there will be a knowledge base of manually translated questions and answers along side an ad-hoc section which would be automatically translated. Quality ad-hoc questions when answered could be moved to the knowledge base section then manually translated for accuracy. The concept is fluid at the moment, so if you would like to see any other features please let us know.
