I don't know who's now heading the project, but I'm doing a spam removal 
on all wiki pages (one by one..long but necessary, I think)..see [1]

I completely agree: first, have good english documentation. Then, 
someone could translate it.
My experience on wikipedia says clearly that there's _always_ someone 
who can translate something, so we may do it later. Absolutely we have 
to organize the wiki and write in English before translating.
But I agree: who in the community decide that? :)

Absolutely UK spelling: why we have tu prefer US spelling over a 
worldwide-spelling? (or I'm wrong?)
