I've been catching up with recent Drupal developments and it's looking very good for multilingual support in the next version (6). There will be a code freeze for 6 July 1st at which point I'll review how far along they got and decide if it's worth moving ahead with rolling our own in the current version or waiting for 6.
Things looks like they're moving quickly, so it may actually be faster, and certainly easier to maintain over the long run, if we hold off until the release of Drupal 6 later this year. In the meantime, we can focus on working out the mechanics of what the experience should be for users moving between Wikitravel & Extra in different languages...
