I think deviation is the exception rather then the rule.  For localisers 
wanting to create a localised experience it would great if it was easy 
to localise the content.  Creating customs websites is often done I feel 
because:

  1. Its hard to translate and maintain the translations
  2. Its easier to put up a few pages then maintain a whole site
  3. Localisers have enough resources to maintain create and maintain a
     custom site.

Even then if you think about it, a lot of content is a pure translation: 
Vision, contacts, steering committee, getting involved, small projects, etc

But now let me do some work...

Is it possible to see the actual content that is stored by the CMS?  I'd 
like to see what format(s) are allowed so that I can see how easy it 
would be to implement straight localisation.

I did some looking around and research on the platform but I can't find 
out exactly in what format pages are stored.  Any pointers and help, or 
a page dump welcome.
