Yeah, I imagine so - it's just a matter of seeing which languages the
moderators speak before creating them, so that there'll at least be
somebody who can read the posts.

I am imagining having "English/Brazilian/Hungarian/etc Support"
categories separately, and possibly one general discussion forum, as a
start anyway. I will start making the categories to fit that now, and
add more as the moderators become clear.
