I have installed the MLE edition and it works just fine, but... Is it possible to make it start on the right languge depending on where the visitor comes from. Lets say that the visitor comes from germany, and I have that language installed, it would be right if it was in german from the beginning. If the visitor comes from sweden and i don't have that country installed it would automattecly be shown in english... I hope you understand the question and looking forward for the answer...

Hello,
1.0MLE doesn't seem to be maintained. 2.0 is my best multilingual expectation.
You would like to select the "languge depending on where the visitor comes from". This requires an up to date working GeoIP database and it doesn't give the good result if the user is in Italia and contributing to an Irish section of a site.
I think a user preference in the browser settings should give better results : see
transparent content negociation. It is visitor oriented : it still fails to select the correct language in the back end for the Spanish contributor in Italia wanting to write an English block
