We don't really have a very good story for what we do with non-English 
documentation. In general, we don't want to have non-English 
documentation in the main documentation area (lest if confuses people) 
though we probably should work out where best to host them, e.g. by 
LinguaPlone-enabling plone.org/documentation.

What did you have in mind for any Spanish docs?

Plone doesn't really compete directly with the above, and almost 
certainly will never install on free hosting portals. It is however easy 
to install (http://plone.org/documentation/how-to/setup-from-source, or 
just download an installer from http://plone.org/download) and get 
started with.

Please read the other threads here about this effort. I wouldn't start 
translating the book as it is now if I were you... There is still lots 
of work to be done.
