It does that - and it sets up systems for on-line translation, but you need to 
read the wiki about how it works.  OTOH, I don't think there is any way you 
could possibly keep translation open to all and at the same time avoid the 
possibility of someone overwriting your original page.  It's happened on ours 
just a couple of times, necessitating a rollback.  We are running the 
extension on a sandbox, but that's one problem I don't expect it to be able to 
solve :-)
