Well, all kinds of pages, just check my hierarchy:

Yes.

Yes, maybe.

Yes.

Yes, this looks kinda different. Anyway, just setup a demo and we'll  
see whether its acceptable.

And also work in IE and Safari? Well, maybe. Just create a prototype  
for review ;-)

We previously had translations. I don't think its viable, first we  
need to ensure that the English site works.

Those are not different sections but completely different servers.

Well, I suggest you just come up with some demo. Everything on the  
left and on the top of the lines with the round edges must be  
preserved (left menu, banner).

Don't know what to do with the right menu.

Good question, I don't know yet. Probably the only viable thing is to  
drop the right menu as there is content which needs to full width.

Of course, it would be a different side.
