Isn't it possible to autodetect the language based on the ip

This, but leaving the option to change the language if there's a mistake
(proxy or something).
The website should automatically use whatever language that
the browser
is setup to request (using the Accept-Language header) with English as a
fallback. (The setting should be under Edit->Preferences->Advanced->
Languages in Firefox).
In terms of automatically detecting based on IP. This could probably be
done with mod_geoip, but I'm not that comfortable with mapping countries
to languages, etc. I think Accept-Language + manual choice gives a good
balance.
