What I'm primarily interested in is recommendations on site structure, 
ie. is it a good idea to have an intro page where you choose your 
language or do we just default to one language and let user pick another 
or...

The site is English/French for an organization based out of Quebec, Canada.

I would also appreciate any technical insights for dealing with 
different languages, the environment is Apache on Linux with PHP and MySQL.
