    Hi everybody,

    I'm from Czech Republic, so I don't feel good to explain myself in other languages, so sorry for confusion and also that is one of reasons I need following add-ons.
    Also for that reason, I probably missed some already released add-ons which I could use in my short trying-to-get-familiar-spell, so please feel free to advise.

    I'd like to have a truly multilingual discussion and I need following add-ons (which might be useful even for a general public):

    1. post summary add-on
    - each post to have one more optional text field which would allow write a resume/summary of a post so anybody don't have to bother reading the whole post if not interested

    2. post/discussion quality and obsoleteness ranking add-on with discussion list ordered by that rank (maybe two add-ons?)
    - ability to vote about post and also a discussion quality
    - ability to rank discussions as obsolete
    - discussion list ordered by some index counted from quality and obsoleteness (as an option to user of course)

    3. translation add-on
    - ability to have more versions of a post in other languages
    - display posts in language versions by user language settings (might co-work with some existing add-ons to get language priorities) and post language version availability
    - new Role 'Translator' which will have create/edit ability and permission to all non-original versions of posts.
    - should work with "1. post summary add-on" so translators team would translate only summaries if quality of the post is not high.

    I'm going to write all this so if you know about anything helpful I would appreciate it.

    I'm going to start with "1. summary add-on" since it looks as the easiest one.

    Also I was thinking about automated translations by some third-party software or some web service, which might be used before you got setup a translation team or also working together as well.

    Having content switched is a huge step beyond the simple UI switching (LanguageSelector).
    If you release such add-on(s), it will be useful!
