I like the idea, but I'm afraid that to take on the job as editor for one 
language - portuguese, for example - can be too much work. However, we have 
some good examples in the open source arena - Debian's home page 
(www.debian.org) is available in several languages, and the translations are 
quite good (and mostly up-to-date, even for pages buried deep into the site).

Depending upon the tools used to build python.org (I assume it's Zope), it 
should be relatively easy to implement a system to notify the editor about 
new pages and documents waiting to be translated. I'm sure it can be done, 
but I have no idea where to start it.
