I had an idea I thought I might pass on for consideration, and I have no idea 
if anyone else is interested in it.

I work in a multilingual, multilocale environment, and quite often one of the 
hurdles that is the most difficult is multilingual document communications.

When I look at a document on opensolaris.org, or sun.com or docs.sun.com or 
sunsolve.com it would be very useful to be able to have a button to get a 
pointer to the document in whatever multilingual formats that are usable.

The problem is one of if I have information in one language, and the person I 
am working with is better in another language than mine, sharing a document in 
my primary language is less than useful to the other person. Being able to 
share the document in their language is the win.

Navigating a site in a locale you do not understand can be easily impossible 
when there is a lot of information on the site.

The problem is one of the regionalization of information to some extent based 
on majority solutions, which is why I am not sure of the level of interest in 
this subject. I do not think this is an uncommon problem to any given 
organization, in this case though Sun and Solaris are critical areas of 
interest for me with this issue.

Thanks
