Actually, our current docs CVS supports drafting/creating documentation
in pt_BR!  It is not limited to just en_US as a "first" or "primary"
language.  We should be able to then have translators create en_US
versions.

There is also work being done currently to get Docs integrated with the
"normal" translation process, so that all this will be less work than it
is now.  (It's not difficult right now, but it's still separate steps
from Fedora code translation.  We're working on it!)

I would like to see translation be part of the Plone CMS as well, but I
have no idea how that would work.

Yours is not the first request for i18n/l10n on the Wiki -- I think this
might be a more general issue that should go to fedora-websites-list for
discussion.
