Hoi,
Like any extension, the Babel extension has its documentation on the
Mediawiki.org website :) The extension is in use on Betawiki itself, yes we
eat our own dogfood :) We are happy with its functionality, it is
configurable..
As to comments or discussion, there is already a page on Meta.. there has
also been a lot of discussion so far has been largely on IRC.
Thanks,
GerardM
