I worked for a Japanese company at the European headquarters where the official business language was English. Oh what fun remoting into a server where all the responses were in Finnish or kanji or German or Turkish. Google Translate is your friend ... Er... Essential tool.

There were always language issues, collation on sql servers n databases n tables could be an utter nightmare. You'll love this though, the best ever application server for multiple languages that just feckin worked ... Lotus Notes/Domino.
