I agree in part with you. It would be nice if there would be a localised
version of the info on that site but is that feasible?

IMO a part of the fun is the fact that you can create your own
(localised) portal/site however you want it. If you want static pages,
fine. If you want PHP, fine.. Want Perl or JSP? Whatever :D

If there is a framework all there is to do is translating a lot of
documents from english to some other language. IMO that's not a lot of
fun ;) You'll also end up with an english page that's always up to date
and a Swahili version that's one year behind.

IMO it would be great when there is a list of regional portals on the
main (english) portal. Even ICQ.com doesn't have a dutch version (last
time I checked anyway).
