Hoi, As long as there is no Internationalisation and Localisation for the essential Commons tools like Commonist, Commons is not usable for people from other languages. When these tools are to be part of Betawiki, get into contact with the people at Betawiki and make this a priority.
Be clear that you will have people NOT use English as a consequence. Thanks, GerardM

Commonist is GPL. It's Java-based, and Java as pretty good unicode support. As to localization, I'm not sure, but I think it uses the standard java mechanisnm, that is "resource bundels" in the form of "property files". The syntax is pretty simple, it would be nice for betawiki to support it.
I havn't checked what languages it supports so far. At least german and english I expect.
