Sounds like a good idea. Kind of like peace on earth, very good idea,
but kind of hard to implement. Did any of you have an idea on how to
get that idea working?

It might even be impossible. :)
I've tried to keep a few translated documents up-to-date, and
concluded that it is way to painful to keep them in sync unless one of
the documents is the master document, and the other is translated from
this master document. I welcome tested and working approaches doing
it another way, as long as it is not too much work for the people we
have available to handle these things.
