We had some discussions in IRC over the past week around the i18n, modifying content vs deploying as-is, and gettext. Since we dropped github pages as our target, I'm looking into writing a small plugin for Jekyll today to aid i18n support, I'm also going to double check that there's no existing plugin that's appropriate. Provided jekyll allows it, I think its should be a reasonably simple plugin and provide the quickest way forward.
