I have a few comments about this discussion.

First is SCOPE, what exactly are we looking for the software to accomplish.


* Are we just looking for it to be an easy way to update and translation the
main site and children pages?
* Are we wanting this to be the one tool for everything (main site, how-to,
blog, etc)?

I am under the impression that we should use the best tool for the task.
This would mean using a CMS/Software for the main site, wiki for the how-to
and wordpress for the blog.

Second deals with Editors and Translators.

* How many content creators do we plan to have?  If we keep it limited to
the main site we don't need that many but if we open it up to everything
then we will need a process to hand user permissions and signup.
* How are translations handled?  Do they just select their preferred
language from the main page and it uses that for the site or what?
* How are the pages translated?  Does this require a person to be a content
creator before they can create a page.

These are just some questions to keep in mind when evaluating a solution.
